अध्वर्यवो ऽरुणꣳ दुग्धम् अꣳशुꣳ जुहोतन वृषभाय क्षितीनाम् । गौराद् वेदीयाꣳ अवपानम् इन्द्रो विश्वाहेद् याति सुतसोमम् इच्छन्

Adhvaryus, offer the ruddy milked stalk to the bull of the settlements. Indra knows the drinking-place better than the wild bull; he goes there every day, seeking the one who has pressed soma.
