RV 2 37.1

मन्दस्व होत्राद् अनु जोषम् अन्धसो ऽध्वर्यवः स पूर्णाꣳ वष्ट्य् आसिचम् । तस्मा एतम् भरत तद्वशो ददिर् होत्रात् सोमꣳ द्रविणोदः पिब ऋतुभिः

mandasva hotrād anu joṣam andhaso 'dhvaryavaḥ sa pūrṇāṁ vaṣṭy āsicam | tasmā etam bharata tadvaśo dadir hotrāt somaṁ draviṇodaḥ piba ṛtubhiḥ

Be exhilarated from the hotṛ's cup, as you please, with the (soma) juice. Adhvaryus—he desires a full pouring! For him carry this; he who is eager for that is a giver. From the hotṛ's cup drink the soma, O Draviṇodas, with the Ṛtus.

यम् उ पूर्वम् अहुवे तम् इदꣳ हुवे सेद् उ हव्यो ददिर् यो नाम पत्यते । अध्वर्युभिः प्रस्थितꣳ सोम्यम् मधु पोत्रात् सोमꣳ द्रविणोदः पिब ऋतुभिः

Him whom I called before, him I call now; he indeed is to be invoked, the giver, who is master of a name. The somic honey has been set forth by the adhvaryus: from the potṛ's cup drink the soma, O Draviṇodas, with the Ṛtus.

Let your draught-beasts grow fat, by which you travel; taking no hurt, make yourself firm, O Lord of the Forest. Having gathered (them) in, O bold one, and having been hailed with acclaim—from the neṣṭṛ's cup drink the soma, O Draviṇodas, with the Ṛtus.

He has drunk from the hotṛ's cup and from the potṛ's, and has become exhilarated; and from the neṣṭṛ's he has enjoyed the pleasant fare set out. Let Draviṇodas drink the fourth vessel, unimpaired, immortal, (the vessel) of the Draviṇodas-priests.
