HYMN XIX
A prayer to Agni for aid against an enemy
1Burn thou, O Agni, with that heat of thine against the man
who hates us, whom we hate.
2Flame thou, O Agni, with that flame of thine against the man
who hates us, whom we hate.
3Shine out, O Agni, with that sheen of thine against the man who
hates us, whom we hate.
4Blaze thou, O Agni, with that blaze of thine against the man
who hates us, whom we hate.
5O Agni, with the splendour that is thine darken the man who
hates us, whom we hate.
