HYMN XV

A prayer for the prosperity of an institutor of sacrifice

1Let the streams, flow together, let the winds and birds assembled
   come.
  Let this my sacrifice delight them always. I offer it with duly mixt
   oblation.
2Come to my call, Blent Offerings, come ye very nigh. And,
   singers, do ye strengthen and increase this man.
  Hither come every animal: with this man let all wealth abide.
3All river founts that blend their streams for ever inexhaustible—
  With all these confluent streams of mine we make abundant
   riches flow.
4All streams of melted butter, and all streams of water and of
   milk
  With all these confluent streams of mine we make abundant
   riches flow.
