Rigveda Samhita — Mandala 7 — Chapter 7

RV 7 7.1

प्र वो देवꣳ चित् सहसानम् अग्निम् अश्वꣳ न वाजिनꣳ हिषे नमोभिः । भवा नो दूतो अध्वरस्य विद्वान् त्मना देवेषु विविदे मितद्रुः

pra vo devaṁ cit sahasānam agnim aśvaṁ na vājinaṁ hiṣe namobhiḥ | bhavā no dūto adhvarasya vidvān tmanā deveṣu vivide mitadruḥ

For you I urge on with homages Agni, the conquering god indeed, like a prize-winning horse; be our messenger, knowing the rite: of himself, running by a measured course, he found his way among the gods.

RV 7 7.3

प्राचीनो यज्ञः सुधितꣳ हि बर्हिः प्रीणीते अग्निर् ईऴितो न होता । आ मातरा विश्ववारे हुवानो यतो यविष्ठ जज्ञिषे सुशेवः

The sacrifice is turned eastward, for the barhis is well laid; Agni, invoked, is pleased, like a hotṛ; calling on the two mothers rich in all goods — from whom, O youngest, you were born most kindly.

ete dyumnebhir viśvam ātiranta mantraṁ ye vāraṁ naryā atakṣan | pra ye viśas tiranta śroṣamāṇā ā ye me asya dīdhayann ṛtasya

These have surpassed everything by their splendours — the manly ones who fashioned the chosen formula; who advanced the clans, being attentive, who have thought out for me (the nature) of this ṛta.
