पराञ्चं यज्ञं चक्र्म वर्धतां गीः समिद्भिरग्निं नमसा दुवस्यन | दिवः शशासुर्विदथा कवीनां गर्त्साय चित तवसे गातुमीषुः

East have we turned the rite; may the hymn aid it. With wood and worship shall they honour Agni. From heaven the synods of the wise have learnt it: e’en for the quick and strong they seek advancement.
