Now praise, as one who strives for strength, the harnessing of Agni's car,\n The liberal, the most splendid One;\n 2 Who, guiding worshippers aright, withers, untouched by age, the foe:\n When worshipped fair to look upon;\n 3 Who for his glory is extolled at eve and morning in our homes,\n Whose statute is inviolate;\n 4 Who shines refulgent like the Sun, with brilliance and with fiery flame,\n Decked with imperishable sheen.\n 5 Him Atri, Agni, have our songs Strengthened according to his sway:\n All glories hath he made his own.\n 6 May we with Agni's, Indra's help, with Soma's, yea, of all the Gods,\n Uninjured dwell together still, and conquer those who fight with us.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 2: HYMN VIII.Agni.","type":"page"}
