HYMN 18 Soma Pavamana

1

Breath of the mighty Dames, the Child, speeding the plan of sacrifice,
Surpasses all things that are dear, yea, from of old.

2

The place that is concealed hath gained a share of Trita's pressing-stones,
By the seven laws of sacrifice, even that dear place.

3

He hath sent forth unto the heights the three, in stream, as Trita's wealth:
He who is passing wise measures his pathways out.
