What happens in this chapter
Press the Sweetest Soma for the Vajri
Bindu Angirasa praises Pavamana Soma in gayatri. The streams of the mighty one have flowed freely into the filter, and as he is purified he raises his voice. Urged on by the pressers and groomed, the drop roars with a sound worthy of Indra. Soma is asked to flow in a stream bringing strength that overcomes men, rich in heroes and desired by many. Pavamana has rushed beyond in his stream to sit in the wooden vessels. In the waters they urge on the sweetest tawny one with the stones, for Indra to drink. The last verse calls for pressing the sweetest Soma for Indra who bears the vajra.
