His back, as he is sprinkled, glistens like a horse: loud hath he roared and shouted like the heights of Heaven?\np:Set high in place o’er all that Devas, Somas do, immortal, Lord of riches, seated as High Monk; Hastening like a car to men, to those who live without delay gives boons to be desired.\np:Urged by the wind be spreads through dry wood as he lists, armed with his tongues for sickles, with a mighty roar. Black is thy path, Agni, changeless, with glittering waves! When like a bull thou rushest eager to the trees.\np:With teeth of flame, wind-driven, through the wood he speeds, triumphant like a bull among the herd of cows, with bright strength roaming to the everlasting air: things fixed, things moving quake before him as he flies.\np:The Bhṛgus established thee among mankind for men, like as a treasure, beauteous, easy to invoke; Thee, Agni, as a herald and choice-worthy guest, as an auspicious Friend to the Celestial Race.\np:Agni, the seven tongues', him whom the monks elect at solemn worship, the Herald, messenger of all the Devas, I serve with dainty food, I ask for riches.\np:Grant, Son of Strength, thou rich in friends, a refuge without a flaw this day to us thy praisers. O Agni, Son of Strength, with forts of iron preserve thou from distress the man who lauds thee.\np:Be thou a refuge, Bright One, to the singer, a shelter, Bounteous Lord, to those who worship.
