एह्यग्न इह होता नि षीदादब्धः सु पुरएता भवा नः । अवतां त्वा रोदसी विश्वमिन्वे यजा महे सौमनसाय देवान् ॥

Come here, O Agni; sit down here as the inviolable priest. Become for us the good leader who goes in front. May Heaven and Earth, the all-stimulating pair, uphold you. Sacrifice to the Gods for the great harmony of our soul-nature.
