A History of Sanskrit Literature c8.12

c8.12

*Run on thy path straight forward past the two dogs,*
*The sons of Saramā, four-eyed and brindled,*
*Draw near thereafter to the bounteous fathers,*
*Who revel on in company with Yama.*

*Broad-nosed and brown, the messengers of Yama,*
*Greedy of lives, wander among the people:*
*May they give back to us a life auspicious*
*Here and to-day, that we may see the sunlight.*
