What happens in this chapter

Soma for Indra and Brihaspati

Six gayatri verses of Vamadeva Gautama to Indra and Brihaspati together. This dear oblation is placed in your mouth, Indra and Brihaspati, and the hymn and the gladdening draught are recited. This lovely soma is poured round for you to drink and rejoice. Come to our house, soma-drinkers, to drink the soma. Grant us wealth of a hundred cows, with horses, a thousandfold. We call you with songs when the soma is pressed. Drink the soma in the giver's house and rejoice, making it your home.
