Canto 65Ketu Agneya · Sukta 156
Book 2. Part Two: Other Hymns to Agni
1. May our thoughts speed the Fire on his way like a swift
galloper in the battles, by him may we conquer every kind
of wealth.
2. The army by which we may make ours the Ray-Cows under
5thy guard, that army send to us43 for the getting of plenty.
43 Or, speed for us
Mandala Ten
3. Bring to us, O Fire, a stable wealth of the Ray-Cows and
the horses of power, reveal heaven, turn away from us the
10evil Trafficker.
4. O Fire, make to ascend the ageless traveller-star, the sun in
heaven upholding the Light for men.
5. O Fire, thou art the ray of intuition in creatures, most dear,
most glorious, seated in the centre.44 Awake, founding his
15expansion who lauds thee.
