The Rig Veda — Mandala 3, Hymn 11 (1896)
“ Infallible is Agni, he who goes before the tribes of men, A chariot swift and ever new. 6. Strength of the Gods which none may harm, subduing all his enemies, Agni is mightiest in fame. 7. By offering sacred food to him the mortal worshipper obtains. A home from him whose light makes pure. 8. From Agni, by our hymns, may we gain all things that bring happiness, Singers of him who knows all life. 9. O Agni, in our deeds of might may we obtain all precious things: The Gods are centred all in thee. ”
