HYMN LXXV. Agni.

1. ACCEPT our loudest-sounding hymn, food most delightful to the Gods,

Pouring our offerings in thy mouth.

2 Now, Agni, will we say to thee, O wisest and best Afigiras,

Our precious, much-availing prayer.

3 Who, Agni, is thy kin, of men? who is thy worthy worshipper?

On whom dependent? who art thou?

4 The kinsman, Agni, of mankind, their well beloved Friend art thou,

A Friend whom friends may supplicate.

5 Bring to us Mitra, Varuna, bring the Gods to mighty sacrifice.

Bring them, O Agni, to thine home.
