Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895], at sacred-texts.com
1What newest of imploring hymns shall, then, the zealous mortal
sing?

themselves the light of heaven?
2When shall they keep the Law and praise thee mid the Gods?
Who counts as Rishi and as sage?
When wilt thou ever, Indra, Bounteous Lord, come nigh to
presser's or to praiser's call?
