حينَ تعلوه—كجوادٍ ظافرٍ بهيّ—تتنافسُ الخواطرُ المتعبّدة؛ وحينَ، كما يجتمعُ الناسُ إلى سُوريا (الشمس)، يختارُ المياهَ؛ عندئذٍ ينسابُ سوما الأشدُّ حكمةً، كأنّه يأتي بالحظيرةِ لزيادةِ الماشية—تلك هي الترتيلة.

{ "gloss_summary": "‘Dhiyaḥ’ are priests’ hymnic acts contending/striving over Soma; ‘choosing the waters’ is Soma taking up purifying streams in filtration; ‘increase of cattle’ is sacrificial prosperity; ‘manma’ is the hymn itself.", "ritual_interpretation": "Interprets imagery in terms of pressing/straining and the patron’s desired fruits (paśu).", "theological_insight": "Rightly performed praise and purification produce both spiritual clarity and worldly support; the hymn is itself a productive enclosure.", "etymology_highlights": "vṛṇānaḥ ‘choosing’; vraja ‘enclosure/stall’; manman/manma ‘hymn/thought’." }
