{ "prastava": "(Stobha prelude; not supplied)", "udgitha": "yadvīḍāvindra yatsthire yatparśāne parābhṛtam vasu spārhaṃ tadā bhara (with sāman elongations)", "pratihara": "(Answering refrain-like segment; often mirrors the imperative cadence)", "upadrava": "(After-song extension highlighting vasu spārham)", "nidhana": "(Final closure on bhara)", "structure_notes": "Place major cadence at ‘vasu spārham’ and final ‘ā bhara’; earlier clauses may be slightly quicker, last command broadened.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha/upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all: nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa treats vasu as yajamāna-sampad: prosperity and goods that enable sacrifice; the three loci (vīḍāu, sthire, parśāne) cover all situations of possession or loss so Indra may restore it.", "ritual_interpretation": "A comprehensive request for resources—ritual materials, fees, and auspicious gain—so the Soma rite proceeds without deficiency.", "theological_insight": "Indra’s lordship extends over hidden, secured, and contested wealth; divine aid reorders loss into sacrificial support.", "etymology_highlights": "spārha = ‘desired/coveted’; parā-bhṛtam = ‘borne away’ (parā + √bhṛ)." }
