> He lived as a religious student with Prajāpati for a hundred years.  
> He told him this sāman: 'This indeed is my royal form. Go! The gods will make you king.'  
> He approached the gods.  
> Seeing him coming, the gods descended \[from their seats\] before him.  
> He said to them: 'Do not descend before me. You are indeed my brothers. As you are, such am I.'  
> 'No,' they said, 'what is the form of our father Prajāpati, that we see in you.'  
> They descended before him.  
> For him they set down this royal throne.  
> Upon it they consecrated him: the Vasus for kingship, the Rudras for paramount rule, the Ādityas for self-rule, the All-Gods for universal empire, the Maruts for complete dominion, and the Sādhyas and Āptyas for supreme status.  
> This is the sāman of the consecration to prosperity.  
> He attains prosperity, he goes to kingship, who knows this.  
> Because King Varuṇa saw it, therefore it is called the Varuṇasāman.
