18510The Hymns of the Rigveda, Book 9 — Hymn 26Ralph T.H. Griffith
1. THE sages with the fingers' art have dressed and decked that vigorous Steed
     Upon the lap of Aditi,
2. The kine have called aloud to him exhaustless with a thousand streams,
     To Indu who supporteth heaven.
3. Him, nourisher of many, Sage, creative Pavamana, they
     Have sent, by wisdom, to the sky.
4. Him, dweller with Vivasvan, they with use of both arms have sent forth,
     The Lord of Speech infallible.
5. Him, green, beloved, many eyed, the Sisters with prosing stones
     Send down to ridges of the sieve.
6. O Pavamana, Indu, priests hurry thee on to Indra, thee
     Who aidest song and cheerest him.
