1.15.1O INDRA drink the Soma juice with Rtu; let the cheering drops Sink deep within, which settle there.

1.15.2Drink from the Purifier's cup, Maruts, with Rtu; sanctify The rite, for ye give precious gifts.

1.15.3O Nestar, with thy Dame accept our sacrifice; with Rtu drink, For thou art he who giveth wealth.

1.15.4Bring the Gods, Agni; in the three appointed places set them down: Surround them, and with Rtu drink.

1.15.5Drink Soma after the Rtus, from the Brahmana's bounty: undissolved, O Indra, is thy friendship's bond.

1.15.8May the Wealth-giver grant to us riches that shall be far renowned. These things we gain, among the Gods.

1.15.9He with the Rtu fain would drink, Wealth-giver, from the Nestar's bowl. Haste, give your offering, and depart.

1.15.10As we this fourth time, Wealth-giver, honour thee with the Rtus, be A Giver bountiful to us.

1.15.11Drink ye the meath, O Asvins bright with flames, whose acts are pure, who with Rtus accept the sacrifice.

1.15.12With Rtu, through the house-fire, thou, kind Giver, guidest sacrifice: Worship the Gods for the pious man.
