Anuvaka 16

1a Thou art Mitra, thou art Varuna.     b May I be united with the All-gods.     c Thou art the navel of kingly power, thou are the womb of kingly power.     d Sit thou on the smooth, sit thou on the pleasant seat.     e May she hurt thee not; may she hurt me not.     f Varuna, of sure vows, hath set him down     In the waters, with keen insight, for lordship.     g O Brahman! Thou, O king, art the Brahman priest, thou art Savitr of true instigation. O Brahman! Thou, O king, art the Brahman priest, thou art Indra of true force [1]. O Brahman! Thou, O king, art the Brahman priest; thou art Indra, the kindly. O Brahman! Thou, O king, art the Brahman priest; thou art Varuna, of true rule.     h Thou art the bolt of Indra, slaying foes; with this subject to me.     i This king hath surmounted the quarters.     k O thou of good fame! O thou of prosperity! O thou of true rule!     l To the son of the waters hail! To the son of strength hail! To Agni, lord of the house, hail!
