Anuvaka 8
1a Up with life, with fair life, Up with the sap of plants, Up with the force of Parjanya, Up have I arisen along with the immortals. b Fare along the wide atmosphere. c Thou art the seat of Aditi. d Sit on the seat of Aditi. e The bull hath stablished the sky, the atmosphere; Hath meted the breadth of the earth; Hath set him in all worlds as king. All these are Varuna's ordinances. f He hath stretched out the sky over the woods; He hath placed strength in horses, milk in kine; Varuna hath set skill in the heart [1], Agni in dwellings, The sun in the sky, the Soma on the hill. g Thee, all-knowing god, Thy rays bear upwards, The sun for all to see. h Come hither, ye oxen, strong to bear the yoke, Tearless, slaying not man, furthering the prayer. i Thou art the pillar of Varuna. k Thou art the prop of Varuna's pillar. I Varuna's noose is tied.
