2He, Narasamsa, ne'er beguiled, inspiriteth this sacrifice: For sage is he, with sweets in hand.

3Adored, O Agni, hither bring Indra the Wonderful, the Friend, On lightly−rolling car to aid.

4Spread thyself out, thou soft as wool The holy hymns have sung to thee. Bring gain to us, O beautiful!

5Open yourselves, ye Doors Divine, easy of access for our aid: Fill, more and more, the sacrifice.

6Fair strengtheners of vital power, young Mothers of eternal Law, Morning and Night we supplicate.

7On the wind's flight come, glorified, ye two celestial Priests of man Come ye to this our sacrifice.

8l! Sarasvati, Mahl, three Goddesses who tring us weal, Be seated harmless on the grass.

9Rich in all plenty, Tvastar, come auspicious of thine own accord Help us in every sacrifice.

10Vanaspati, wherever thou knowest the Gods' mysterious names, Send our oblations thitherward.

11To Agni and to Varuna, Indra, the Maruts, and the Gods, With Svaha be oblation brought.
