Griffith, [1896]\n1. HOLD fast your Godlike sway, O Soma-Rudra: let these our sacrifices quickly reach you.\n Placing in every house your seven great treasures, bring blessing to our quadrupeds and bipeds.\n 2 Soma and Rudra, chase to every quarter the sickness that hath visited our dwelling.\n Drive Nirrti away into the distance, and give us excellent and happy glories.\n 3 Provide, O Soma-Rudra, for our bodies all needful medicines to heal and cure us.\n Set free and draw away the sin committed which we have still inherent in our persons.\n 4 Armed with keen shafts and weapons, kind and loving, be gracious unto us, Soma and Rudra.\n Release us from the noose of Varu\u1e47a; keep us from sorrow, in your tender loving-kindness.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 6: HYMN LXXIV.
