HYMN IV

To the waters, for the prosperity of cattle

1Along their paths the Mothers go, sisters of priestly
   ministrants,
  Blending their water with the mead.
2May yonder Waters near the Sun, or those wherewith the Sun is
   joined,
  Send forth this sacrifice of ours.
3I call the Waters, Goddesses, hitherward where our cattle
   drink:
  The streams must share the sacrifice.
4Amrit is in the Waters, in the Waters balm.
  Yea, through our praises of the Floods, O horses, be ye fleet and
   strong, and, O ye kine, be full of strength.
