What happens in this chapter
Yoke the red mares, O Maruts
Shyavashva Atreya calls the Marut host through Agni, in Brihati and Satobrihati. Decked with gold, they come from the bright heaven. The earth, struck by their rush, comes rejoicing like a wife to her husband; their onset is fierce as a bear, terrible as a wild bull. They topple even the stone mountain on their march. The rishi cries: rise now, and calls them like a herd let loose. Yoke the red mares, yoke the ruddy ones, yoke the swift bay pair to the pole. He invokes the Marut chariot where Rodasi stands among them, bringing delights.
