Bibliotheca Polyglotta

1 SET this our sacrifice among the Immortals: be pleased with these our presents, Jātavedas. O Priest, O Agni, sit thee down before us, and first enjoy the drops of oil and fatness.

ghr̥távantaḥ pavāka+ te stokā́ ścotanti médasaḥ |
svádharman devávītaye śréṣṭhaṃ no dhehi vā́riyam ||

2 For thee, O Purifier, flow the drops of fatness rich in oil. After thy wont vouchsafe to us the choicest boon that Gods may feast.

túbhyaṃ stokā́ ghr̥taścúto ágne víprāya santiya |
ŕ̥ṣiḥ śréṣṭhaḥ sám idhyase yajñásya prāvitā́ bhava ||

3 Agni, Most Excellent! for thee the Sage are drops that drip with oil. Thou art enkindled as the best of Seers. Help thou the sacrifice.

túbhyaṃ ścotanti adhrigo śacīva stokā́so agne médaso ghr̥tásya |
kaviśastó br̥hatā́ bhānúnā́gā havyā́ juṣasva medhira ||

4 To thee, O Agni, mighty and resistless, to thee stream forth the drops of oil and fatness. With great light art thou come, O praised by poets! Accept our offering, O thou Sage.

ójiṣṭhaṃ te madhyató méda údbhr̥tam prá te vayáṃ dadāmahe |
ścótanti te vaso stokā́ ádhi tvací práti tā́n devaśó vihi ||

5 Fatness exceeding rich, extracted from the midst, —this as our gift we offer thee. Excellent God, the drops run down upon thy skin. Deal them to each among the Gods.
