Sukta 10.8
भुवो यज्ञस्य रजसश्च नेता यत्रा नियुद्भिः सचसे शिवाभिः । दिवि मूर्धानं दधिषे स्वर्षां जिह्वामग्ने चकृषे हव्यवाहम् ॥
bhuvo yajñásya rájasas ca netā́ yátrā niyúd-bhiḥ sácase śivā́bhiḥ | diví mūrdhā́naṃ dadhīṣe svàr-sāṃ jihvā́m agne cakṛṣe havya-vā́ham ||
Thou becomest the leader of the sacrifice and of the mid-worlds, where with thy auspicious yoking-powers thou joinest thyself. In heaven thou settest thy head; the tongue that wins the luminous worlds—this, O Agni, thou hast fashioned as the carrier of the offering.
