Sukta 4.23
कथा महामवृधत्कस्य होतुर्यज्ञं जुषाणो अभि सोममूधः । पिबन्नुशानो जुषमाणो अन्धो ववक्ष ऋष्वः शुचते धनाय ॥
kathā́ mahā́m avṛdhat kásya hótur yajñáṃ juṣāṇó abhí sómam ū́dhaḥ | píban nuśānó juṣámāṇo ándho vavakṣé ṛṣváḥ śúcate dhánāya ||
Wie wuchs er zur Größe heran, und für welchen Hotar, das Opfer annehmend, wandte er sich dem Soma zu wie einem Euter? Trinkend, begehrend, den ausgepressten Saft genießend, ist der Erhabene gewachsen zu leuchtendem Reichtum.
