HYMN VIII

1Drink as of old, and let the draught delight thee: hear thou my
   prayer and let our songs exalt thee.
  Make the Sun visible, make food abundant: slaughter the foes,.
   pierce through and free the cattle.
2Come to us; they have called thee Soma-lover. Here is the
   pressed juice: drink thereof for rapture.
  Widely-capacious, pour it down within thee, and invocated hear
   us like a father.
3Full is his chalice. Blessing! Like a pourer I have filled up the
   vessel for his drinking.
  Presented on the right, dear Soma juices have brought us Indra,.
   to rejoice him, hither.
