Griffith, [1896]\n1. FORTH from the mortar is the juice sent, like a car-horse, to the sieve:\n The Steed steps forward to the goal.\n 2 Thus, Soma, watchful, bearing well, cheering the Gods, flow past the sieve,\n Turned to the vat that drops with meath.\n 3 Excellent Pavamana, make the lights shine brightly out for us.\n Speed us to mental power and skill.\n 4 He, beautified by pious men, and coming from their hands adorned,\n Flows through the fleecy straining-cloth.\n 5 May Soma pour all treasures of the heavens, the earth, the firmament\n Upon the liberal worshipper.\n 6 Thou mountest to the height of heaven, O Soma, seeking steeds and kine,\n And seeking heroes, Lord of Strength!","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 9: HYMN XXXVI.
