STREAMS of this Potent One have flowed easily to the straining-cloth:\n While he is cleansed he lifts his voice.\n 2 Indu, by pressers urged to speed, bellowing out while beautified.\n Sends forth a very mighty sound.\n 3 Pour on us, Soma, with thy stream manconquering might which many crave,\n Accompanied with hero sons.\n 4 Hither hath Pavamana flowed, Soma flowed hither in a stream,\n To settle in the vats of wood.\n 5 To waters with the stones they drive thee tawny-hued, most rich in sweets,\n O Indu, to be Indra's drink.\n 6 For Indra, for the Thunderer press the Soma very rich in sweets,\n Lovely, inspiriting, for strength.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 9: HYMN XXX.
