MANDALA 10

HYMN CLXXX. Indra. 180

1. O MUCHINVOKED-, thou hast subdued thy foemen: thy might is loftiest; here display thy bounty.
In thy right hand, O Indra, bring us treasures: thou art the Lord of rivers filled with riches.
2 Like a dread wild beast roaming on the mountain thou hast approached us from the farthest
distance.
Whetting thy bold and thy sharp blade, O Indra, crush thou the foe and scatter those who hate us.
3 Thou, mighty Indra, sprangest into being as strength for lovely lordship over the people.
Thou drovest off the folk who were unfriendly, and to the Gods thou gavest room and freedom.

HYMN CLXXXI. Visvedevas. 181

From radiant Dhatar, Savitar, and Visnu, from Agni, Bharadvaja brought the Brhat.

Repel the curse, and drive away illfeeling-, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort!

May he repel the curse, and chase illfeeling-, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort.

May he repel the curse and chase illfeeling-, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort.

HYMN CLXXXIII. The Sacrificer, Etc. 183

Bestowing offspring here, bestowing riches, spread in thine offspring, thou who cravest children.

Come as a youthful woman, rise to meet me: spread in thine offspring, thou who cravest children.

All progeny on earth have I engendered, and sons in women who will be hereafter.

HYMN CLXXXIV. 184

1. MAY Visnu form and mould the womb, may Tvastar duly shape the forms,
Prajapati infuse the stream, and Dhatar lay the germ for thee.
2 O Sinivali, set the germ, set thou the germ, Sarasvati:
May the Twain Gods bestow the germ, the Asvins crowned with lotuses.
3 That which the Asvins Twain rub forth with the attritionsticks- of gold,
That germ of thine we invocate, that in the tenth month thou mayst bear.

HYMN CLXXXV. Aditi. 185

1. GREAT, unassailable must he the heavenly favour of Three Gods,
Varuna, Mitra, Aryaman.

3 Nor over him,. the man on whom the Sons of Aditi bestow Eternal light that he may live.

HYMN CLXXXVI. Vayu. 186

1. FILLING our hearts with health and joy, may Vata breathe his balm on us
May he prolong our days of life.

So give us strength that we may live.
3 The store of Amrta laid away yonder, O Vata, in thine home,
Give us thereof that we may live.

HYMN CLXXXVII. Agni. 187

1. To Agni send I forth my song, to him the Bull of all the folk:
So may he bear us past our foes.
2 Who from the distance far away shines brilliantly across the wastes:
So may he bear us past our foes.
3 The Bull with brightlygleaming- flame who utterly consumes the fiends
So may he bear us past our foes.
4 Who looks on all existing things and comprehends them with his view:
So may he bear us past our foes.

Advancing to his Father heaven.

The Bull shines out through all the sky.
3 Song is bestowed upon the Bird: it rules supreme through thirty realms
Throughout the days at break of morn.
