2May we obtain, completely wrought, the thread spun out to reach the Gods, That perfecteth the sacrifice.

3We call the spirit hither with the Soma of our parted sires, Yea, with the Fathers' holy hymns.

4Thy spirit come to thee again for wisdom, energy, and lire, That thou mayst long behold the sun!

5O Fathers, may the Heavenly Folk give us our spirit once again, That we may be with those who live.

6O Soma with the spirit still within us, blest with progeny, May we be busied in the law.

7As in a ship through billows, so through regions of air, with blessings, through toils and troubles Hath Brhaduktha brought his seed with glory, and placed it here and in the realms beyond us. HYMN LVIL Visvedevas. 1. LET us not, Indra, leave the path, the Soma−presser's sacrifice: Let no malignity dwell with us.
