RV 2 36.1

तुभ्यꣳ हिन्वानो वसिष्ट गा अपो ऽधुक्षन् सीम् अविभिर् अद्रिभिर् नरः । पिबेन्द्र स्वाहा प्रहुतꣳ वषट्कृतꣳ होत्राद् आ सोमम् प्रथमो य ईशिषे

tubhyaṁ hinvāno vasiṣṭa gā apo 'dhukṣan sīm avibhir adribhir naraḥ | pibendra svāhā prahutaṁ vaṣaṭkṛtaṁ hotrād ā somam prathamo ya īśiṣe

Urged on for you, it has clothed itself in the cows (milk) and the waters; the men have milked it out with fleeces and with stones. Drink, Indra — svāhā! — the soma offered forth, made with vaṣaṭ, from the hotṛ's vessel, you who first have the power.

This here is that (draught) of yours, the increaser of the manly vigour of your body; might and force have from of old been set in your two arms. For you it is pressed, O bounteous one, for you it is brought: drink your fill of it from the brahman's station.

juṣethāṁ yajñam bodhataṁ havasya me satto hotā nividaḥ pūrvyā anu | acchā rājānā nama ety āvṛtam praśāstrād ā pibataṁ somyam madhu

Take pleasure, you two, in the sacrifice; heed my oblation. The hotṛ is seated following the ancient nivid-formulas. Homage goes toward you two kings, (each) in its turn: drink the somic honey from the praśāstṛ's station.
