From (your) mouth the Ṛk-verses and the Yajus-formulas are set in motion; the Sāman-chants (too). O sovereign, (you are) the Vasu; (you are) the mid-space. You are the leader of sacrifice, the eater of oblations, and the all-pervading one; (you are) the Rudras, and likewise the hosts of Daityas, and the Vasu(-deities) as well.
