Rig Veda 9.87.1: Mandala 9, Sukta 87, Mantra 1
Sukta 9.87
प्र तु द्रव परि कोशं नि षीद नृभिः पुनानो अभि वाजमर्ष । अश्वं न त्वा वाजिनं मर्जयन्तोऽच्छा बर्ही रशनाभिर्नयन्ति ॥
prá tu drava pári kośáṃ ní ṣīda nṛ́bhiḥ punānó abhí vā́jam arṣa | aśváṃ na tvā vājínaṃ márjayanto ’cchā bárhī raśanā́bhir nayanti ||
Run forth; circle the vessel and sit down: purified by the human powers, flow towards plenitude of force. As they groom a swift horse, so they cleanse thee, the energised one, and lead thee to the sacred seat with guiding reins.
