Mantra 74
Rishi: Traditional: associated with cosmological seer-figures; functional attribution to the Adhvaryu in prayoga.
Devata: Soma and Indra (indriya); haṃsa as cosmological symbol (Āditya/prāṇa).
Chandas: Self-referential emphasis on chandas; performed as a refrain-bearing liturgical unit.

Translation
หงส์ผู้ผ่องใส (Haṃsa) ด้วยอำนาจแห่งฉันทัส (chandas) ได้ดื่มโสมะ (Soma) ออกมาจากสายน้ำทั้งหลาย. ด้วยฤตะ—ด้วยสัจจะ—เขาได้อินทรียะของอินทรา: เครื่องดื่มนั้น, แก่นสารอันสุกใส, น้ำเลี้ยงอันรุ่งเรืองของพืช (andhas). นี่แลคือพลังของอินทรา—น้ำนมนี้เป็นอมฤต, หวานดุจน้ำผึ้ง.
