Griffith, [1896]\n1. THE priests of him the lofty Priest well-skilled in hymns harness their spirit, yea, harness their holy thoughts.\n He only knowing works assigns their priestly tasks. Yea, lofty is the praise of Savitar the God.\n 2 The Sapient One arrays himself in every form: for quadruped and biped he hath brought forth good.\n Excellent Savitar hath looked on heaven's high vault, and shineth after the outgoing of the Dawn.\n 3 Even he, the God whose going-forth and majesty the other Deities have followed with their might,\n He who hath measured the terrestrial regions out by his great power, he is the Courser Savitar.\n 4 To the three spheres of light thou goest, Savitar, and with the rays of Sidrya thou combinest thee.\n Around, on both sides thou encompassest the night: yea, thou, O God, art Mitra through thy righteous laws.\n 5 Over all generation thou art Lord alone: P\u016b\u1e63an art thou, O God, in all thy goings-forth.\n Yea, thou hast domination over all this world. \u015ay\u0101v\u0101\u015bva hath brought praise to thee, O Savitar,","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 5: HYMN LXXXI.
