1.172.1WONDERFUL let your coming be, wondrous with help, ye Bounteous Ones, Maruts, who gleam as serpents gleam.

1.172.2Far be from us, O Maruts, ye free givers, your impetuous shaft; Far from us be the stone ye hurl.

1.172.3O Bounteous Givers, touch ye not, O Maruts, Trnskanda's folk; Lift ye us up that we may live.
