Sama Veda
Part second, Book 1, Chapter II, XVII, Soma, Pavamana
1. By generation long ago this God, engendered for the Gods,
Flows tawny to the straining cloth.
2. According to primeval plan this poet hath been strengthened by,
The sage as God for all the Gods.
3. Shedding the ancient fluid thou art poured into the cleansing sieve:
Roaring, thou hast produced the Gods.
