33.205.p1

tā etā bhavanti triṣṭubhastriṣṭubvarṇā ahno rūpeṇa samṛddhāḥ
yatra vā ahārūpeṇa samardhayanti saṃ tatrardhyate
samasmā ṛdhyate ya evaṃ veda
ete somā abhi priyam
ityabhīti bhavati rathantarasya rūpam
rāthantarametadahaḥ
indrasya kāmamakṣarann

These become triṣṭubhs, possessing the color of the triṣṭubh, perfected through the form of the day. Where they prosper [the rite] with the form of the day, it succeeds there. He who knows thus succeeds. "These Somas [flow] toward what is dear"—[with the word] "toward" (abhi), there is the form of the rathantara; this day is connected with the rathantara. "They flowed according to the desire of Indra"—that which pertains to Indra is the form of the triṣṭubh; for the triṣṭubh is nobility. "Increasing his vital power"—for this day, which is the forty-four-fold [stoma], is great. The hymn becomes the counterpart; the hymn is cattle, cattle are the chandomas, for the acquisition of cattle.
