HYMN IX

A charm to secure wealth and felicity

Ours is superior place and ours is conquest: may I in all fights
tread down spite and malice.
This word hath Agni, this hath Soma spoken. May Pushan set
me in the world of virtue.
We have come to the light of heaven; to the light of heaven
have we come: we have united with the light of Surya.
Sacrifice is fraught with wealth for the increase of prosperity. I
would win riches; fain would I be wealthy. Do thou bestow
wealth upon me.
