ā ha̍rya̱tāya̍ dhṛ̱ṣṇave̱ dhanu̍s tanvanti̱ pauṁsya̍m |
śu̱krāṁ va̍ya̱nty asu̍rāya ni̱rṇija̍ṁ vi̱pām agre̍ mahī̱yuva̍ḥ ||
THEY for the Bold and Lovely One ply manly vigour like a bow: joyous, in front of songs they weave bright raiment for the Lord Divine.
9.99.2
adha̍ kṣa̱pā pari̍ṣkṛto̱ vājā̍m̐ a̱bhi pra gā̍hate |
yadī̍ vi̱vasva̍to̱ dhiyo̱ hari̍ṁ hi̱nvanti̱ yāta̍ve ||
And he, made beautiful by night, dips forward into strengthening food', What time the sacrificer's thoughts speed on his way the Golden-hued.
9.99.3

yaṁ gāva̍ ā̱sabhi̍r da̱dhuḥ pu̱rā nū̱naṁ ca̍ sū̱raya̍ḥ ||
We cleanse this gladdening drink of his the juice which Indra chiefly drinks--- That which kine took into their mouths, of old, and princes take it now.
9.99.4

u̱to kṛ̍panta dhī̱tayo̍ de̱vānā̱ṁ nāma̱ bibhra̍tīḥ ||
To him, while purifying, they have raised the ancient psalm of praise: And sacred songs which bear the names of Gods have supplicated him.
9.99.5
tam u̱kṣamā̍ṇam a̱vyaye̱ vāre̍ punanti dharṇa̱sim |
dū̱taṁ na pū̱rvaci̍ttaya̱ ā śā̍sate manī̱ṣiṇa̍ḥ ||
They purify him as he drops, courageous, in the fleecy sieve. Him they instruct as messenger to bear the sage's morning prayer.
9.99.6
sa pu̍nā̱no ma̱dinta̍ma̱ḥ soma̍ś ca̱mūṣu̍ sīdati |
pa̱śau na reta̍ ā̱dadha̱t pati̍r vacasyate dhi̱yaḥ ||
Soma, best Cheerer, takes his seat, the while they cleanse him in the bowls. He as it were impregns the cow, and babbles on, the Lord of Song.
9.99.7

vi̱de yad ā̍su saṁda̱dir ma̱hīr a̱po vi gā̍hate ||
He is effused and beautified, a God for Gods, by skilful men. He penetrates the mighty floods collecting all he knows therein.
9.99.8

indrā̍ya matsa̱rinta̍maś ca̱mūṣv ā ni ṣī̍dasi ||
Pressed, Indu, guided by the men, thou art led to the cleaning sieve. Thou, yielding Indra highest joy, takest thy seat within the bowls.
