HYMN XVIII

1Of that Vrātya.
2The right eye is the Sun and the left eye is the Moon.
3His right ear is Agni and his left ear is Pavamāna.
4Day and Night are his nostrils. Diti and Aditi are his head and
skull.
5By day the Vrātya is turned westward, by night he is turned
eastward. Worship to the Vrātya!
