5. May AGNI, the presenter of oblations, the attainer of knowledge; he who is true, renowned, and divine, come hither with the gods! 6. Whatever good thou mayest, AGNI, bestow upon the giver (of the oblation), that verily, ANGIRAS, shall revert to thee. 7. We approach thee, AGNI, with reverential homage in our thoughts, daily, both morning and evening. 8. Thee, the radiant, the protector of sacrifices, the constant illuminator of truth, increasing in thine own dwelling! 9. AGNI, be unto us easy of access, as is a father to a son; be ever present with us for our good! II. 1. AŚWINS, cherishers of pious acts, long-armed, accept with outstretched hands the sacrificial viands! 2. AŚWINS, abounding in mighty acts, guides (of devotion), endowed with fortitude, listen with unaverted minds to our praises! 3. AŚWINS, destroyers of foes, exempt from untruth, leaders in the van of heroes, come to the mixed libations sprinkled on the lopped sacred grass! 4. INDRA, of wonderful splendour, come hither; these libations, ever pure, expressed by the fingers (of the priests), are desirous of thee! 5. INDRA, apprehended by the understanding and appreciated by the wise, approach and accept the prayers (of the priest), as he offers the libation! 6. Fleet INDRA with the tawny coursers, come hither to the prayers (of the priests), and in this libation accept our (proffered) food. 7. Universal Gods! protectors and supporters of men, bestowers (of rewards), come to the libation of the worshipper! 8. May the swift-moving universal Gods, the shedders of rain, come to the libation, as the solar rays come 'diligently' to the days! 9. May the universal Gods, who are exempt from decay, omniscient, devoid of malice, and bearers of riches, accept the sacrifice! 10. May SARASWATÍ, the purifier, the bestower of food, the recompenser of worship with wealth, be attracted by our offered viands to our rite! 11. SARASWATÍ, the inspirer of those who delight in truth, the instructress of the right-minded, has accepted our sacrifice! 12. SARASWATÍ makes manifest by her acts a mighty river, and (in her own form) enlightens all understandings. III. 1. Come, INDRA, and be regaled with all viands and libations, and thence, mighty in strength, be victorious (over thy foes)! 2. The libation being prepared, present the exhilarating and efficacious (draught) to the rejoicing INDRA, the accomplisher of all things. 3. INDRA, with the handsome chin, be pleased with these animating praises: do thou, who art to be reverenced by all mankind, (come) to these rites (with the gods)! 4. I have addressed to thee, INDRA, the showerer (of blessings), the protector (of thy worshippers), praises which have reached thee, and of which thou hast approved!
