Sukta 9.69
उपो मतिः पृच्यते सिच्यते मधु मन्द्राजनी चोदते अन्तरासनि । पवमानः संतनिः प्रघ्नतामिव मधुमान्द्रप्सः परि वारमर्षति ॥
úpo matíḥ pṛ́cyate sicyate mádhu mandrā́janī codate antárā́sani | pávamānaḥ santaníḥ prághnatām-iva mádhumān drápsaḥ pári vā́ram arṣati ||
The thought comes near and is mingled, it is steeped in honey; the delight-bearing birth impels it within the seat of the being. The purifying Soma, a continuous thread, like one who smites obstacles, the honey-rich drop flows around the enclosing net and passes onward.
