The Rig Veda — Mandala 1, Hymn 9… (1896)

“ O Indra, stimulate thereto us emulously fain for wealth, And glorious, O most splendid One. 7. Give, Indra, wide and lofty fame, wealthy in cattle and in strength, Lasting our life-time, failing not. 8. Grant us high fame, O Indra, grant riches bestowing thousands, those Fair fruits of earth borne home in wains. 9. Praising with songs the praise-worthy who cometh to our aid, we call Indra, the Treasure-Lord of wealth. 10. To lofty Indra, dweller by each libation, the pious man Sings forth aloud a strengthening hymn. ”
