“ Best Mother, best of Rivers, best of Goddesses, Sarasvati, We are, as 'twere, of no repute and dear Mother, give thou us renown. 17. In thee, Sarasvati, divine, all generations have their stay. Be, glad with Sunahotra's sons: O Goddess grant us progeny. 18. Enriched with sacrifice, accept Sarasvati, these prayers of ours, Thoughts which GrtSamadas beloved of Gods bring, Holy One to thee. 19. Ye who bless sacrifice, go forth, for verily we choose you both, And Agni who conveys our gifts. 20. This our effectual sacrifice, reaching the sky, shall Heaven and Earth Present unto the Gods to-day. ”

“ They wait on him whose life is true. 7. With kine, Nasatyas, and with steeds, come, Asvins, Rudras, to the house That will protect its heroes well; 8. Such, wealthy Gods! as none afar nor standing nigh to us may harm, Yea, no malicious mortal foe. ”
