Griffith, [1896]\n1. THIS Sage, exalted by our lauds, flows to the purifying cloth,\n Scattering foes as he is cleansed.\n 2 As giving power and winning light, for Indra and for V\u0101yu he\n Is poured upon the filtering-cloth.\n 3 The men conduct him, Soma, Steer, Omniscient, and the Head of Heaven,\n Effused into the vats of wood.\n 4 Longing for kine, longing for gold hath Indu Pavamana lowed,\n Still Conqueror, never overcome.\n 5 This Pavamana, gladdening draught, drops on the filtering cloth, and then\n Mounts up with S\u016brya to the sky.\n 6 To Indra in the firmament this mighty tawny Steer hath flowed,\n This Indu, being purified.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 9: HYMN XXVII.
