What happens in this chapter

Ayasya Sends Soma to Bhaga and Vayu

Ayasya Angirasa sings in gayatri. Indu flows toward the Devas for our great increase, carrying a wave. Pleasing to the mind and set in place by insight, the poet Soma is sent far off in the stream of the sage. Wakeful among the Devas, pressed, he comes to the filter, far-seeing. Seeking strength, he is to flow, making the rite lovely, while the worshipper with spread barhis serves. Strong in sages, ever growing, may Soma bring wealth for Bhaga and Vayu among the Devas. Today, knower of the way, may he win strength and great fame for our good.
