Chapter I

HYMN 12 Agni

1

Agni, thou pourest life: send down upon us food and vigorous strength:
Drive thou misfortune far away!

2

Agni is Pavamana, Sage, Chief Priest of all the fivefold tribes; To him whose wealth is great we pray.

3

Skilled in thy task, O Agni, pour splendour with hero strength on us, Granting me wealth that nourishes!
