Rig Veda 10.188: Now send ye Jatavedas forth, send hitherward the vigorous Steed
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896) · From The Hymns of the Rigveda (1896)
Now send ye Jatavedas forth, send hitherward the vigorous Steed
To seat him on our sacred grass.
I raise the lofty eulogy of Jatavedas, raining boons,
With sages for his hero band.
With flames of Jatavedas which carry oblation to the Gods,
May he promote our sacrifice.
