VEDIC HYMNS.
worlds for the sake of happiness, Agni, O god, that they may eagerly partake 2 of the offering of the man (or, of Manus).
7. Give us, Agni, mighty, give us thousandfold (gifts). Open strength for us like a door 1 for the sake of glory. Make Heaven and Earth inclined towards us through (our) spell. Make the Dawns shine like the brilliant Sun.
8. Being kindled after dawns and nights may he shine with his red light like the sun, Agni, being a good sacrificer with the help of the offerings of man (or, of Manus) !, the king of the clans, and the welcome guest of Ayu.
9. Thus, O Agni, ancient one, our human prayer has prospered among the immortals who dwell in the great heaven. May the cow' when milked, yield? freely to the singer in our settlements hundredfold (wealth) of all kinds.
10. May we, O Agni, (attain) bliss in valiant men by our racers, or may we shine over (all) people by our sacred spells. May our unconquerable lustre beam on high like the sun over the fivefold dwellings (of the five peoples).
11. Be thou, O mighty one, worthy of praise among us, (thou) from whom the well-born, liberal (lords) have sought nourishment”, unto whom the strong ones, O Agni, go for sacrifice, who shinest in thy abode among (the worshipper's) own kith.
12. May we both, O Gâtavedas, the praisers and the liberal (lords), be in thy protection, O Agni. Help us to good, resplendent, abundant wealth which is accompanied by offspring, by good progeny.
13 = II, 1, 16.
