The Red, who reaches up to heaven!

And pour the sweet milk in the meath.

With humble homage draw ye nigh; blend the libation with the curds:
To Indra offer Indu up

4

Soma, foe-queller, strong and swift, doing the will of Gods, pour forth,
Prosperity upon our kine

5

Heart-knower, Sovran of the heart, thou art effused, O Soma, Tthat,
Indra. may drink thee and rejoice.

6

O Soma Pavamana, give us riches and heroic strength, Indu, with Indra. our ally!
