CHAPTER III

I Agni

1.Wise Agni, in the ancient way, making his body beautiful,

Hath been exalted by the sage.

2. I invocate the Child of Strength, Agni whose glow is bright and pure,

In this well-ordered sacrifice.

3. So, Agni, rich in many friends, with fiery splendour seat thyself.

With Gods upon our sacred grass!
