1a The Raksas is burnt up, the evil spirits are burnt up.     b With Agni's keenest flame I burn you.     c May I not brush the place of the cattle, I brush thee that art strong and overcomest foes.     d Speech, breath, eye, ear, offspring, the organ of generation may I not brush, I brush thee that art strong and overcomest foes.     e Beseeching favour, offspring, prosperity, in devotion to Agni,     I gird my body for good action.     f With fair offspring, with noble husbands,     We are come to thee,     O Agni, to thee that deceivest the foe,     The undeceivable, we that are not deceived.     g I loosen this bond of Varuna,     Which Savitr the kindly hath bound,     And in the birthplace of the creator, in the place of good action,     I make it pleasant for me with my husband.     h With life, with offspring,     O Agni, with splendour again,     As wife with my husband I am united.     United be my spirit with my body.     i Of the great ones thou art the milk, of plants the sap. Of thee that art the imperishable I make the offering.     k Thou art the milk of the great ones, of plants the sap; with undeceived eye I gaze on thee for fair offspring.     l Thou art brilliance; follow thou brilliance; may Agni not take away the brilliance.     m Thou art the tongue of Agni, the good one of the gods.     n Be thou (good) for every sacrifice, for the gods, for every prayer.     o Thou art the shining, the radiance, the brilliance.     p May the god Savitr purify you     With a flawless strainer,     With the rays of the bright sun.     q I grasp thee shining in the shining, for every sacrifice, for the gods, for every prayer.     r I grasp thee radiance in the radiance, thee resplendent in the resplendence for every sacrifice, for the gods, for every prayer.
