HYMN XCIX

1Men with their lauds are urging thee, Indra, to drink the Soma
   first.
  The Ribhus in accord have lifted up their voice and Rudras.
   sung thee as the First.
2Indra increased his manly strength at sacrifice, in the wild
   rapture of this juice;
  And living men to-day, even as of old, sing forth their praises to
   his majesty.
