1a He offers to Soma with the Pitrs a cake on six potsherds, to the Pitrs who sit on the straw fried grains, for the Pitrs prepared by Agni he milks a beverage from a cow which has to be won over (to another calf).     b This for thee, O father, and for thy line;     This for thee, O grandfather, great-grandfather, and for thy line     Do ye Pitrs rejoice in your portions.     c May we gladden thee,     O bountiful one, fair to see;     Forth now with full chariot seat     Being praised, dost thou fare according to our will;     Yoke, O Indra, thy two bay steeds [1].     d They have eaten, they have rejoiced,     The dear ones have dispelled (evil),     The radiant sages have been praised with newest hymn;     Yoke, O Indra, thy two bay steeds.     e The Pitrs have eaten, the Pitrs have rejoiced, the Pitrs have been glad, the Pitrs have purified themselves.     f Go away, O ye Pitrs, Soma loving,     With your majestic ancient paths;     Then reach ye the kindly Pitrs     Who carouse in company with Yama.     h Mind let us summon hither     With the praise of Naraçansa     And the reverence of the Pitrs.     h Let mind return to us [2]     For vigour, for insight, for life,     And that long we may see the sun.'     i May the Pitrs restore mind to us,     May the host of the gods;     May we belong to the band of the living.     k Whatever hurt we have done to atmosphere, to earth, to sky,     To mother or to father,     May Agni of the house free me from this sin;     May he make me blameless     In respect of all the ill we have wrought.
