1. Pressers, blend Soma juice for him, each draugbt most excellent, for him
The brave, the: hero, for his joy!

2. The two stroing bay steeds, voked by prayer, hither shall bring to us our friend,
Indra, song-lover, through our songs.

3. The Vritra-slayer drinks the juice. May he who gives a hundred
aids
Approach, nor stay afar from us!
