\nThe Twenty-Sixth Hymn to Agni <\/font><\/b>
\n\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
\nA HYMN OF THE PRIEST AND SACRIFICIAL FLAME <\/b>
\n\t\t\t<\/span><\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n[The Rishi invokes the Divine Flame in all its usual attributes as the sacrificer, the luminous seer who has the vision of the luminous world, the bringer of the gods, the carrier of the offering, the envoy, conqueror, increaser of the divine workings in man,
\nthe knower of the Births, the leader of the march of the sacrifice with its progressive epiphany of the godheads.]
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n1. O Flame, O purifier, bring to us by thy tongue of rapture, O god, the gods and offer to them sacrifice.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n2. Thou who drippest the clarity, thou of the rich and varied luminousness, we desire thee because thou hast the vision
\nof our world of the Truth. Bring to us the gods for their manifesting.1<\/font><\/sup>
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n3. O Seer, we kindle thee in thy light and thy vastness in the march of our sacrifice who carriest the offerings on their
\njourney.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\nOr “for the journeying” to the luminous world of the Truth, or “for the eating” of the oblations.

\n4. Come, O Will, with all the godheads for the giving of the oblation; thee we accept as the priest of the offering.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n5. For the sacrificer who presses the wine of his delight, bring, O Flame, a perfect energy. Sit with the gods on the seat of
\nthe soul’s fullness.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n6. O Flame, thou burnest high and increasest the divine laws
\nand art the conqueror of a thousandfold riches; thou art the messenger of the gods who hast the word.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n7. Set within you the Flame who knows the births, bearer of the offering, youngest vigour, divine sacrificer in the seasons
\nof the Truth.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\n8. Today let thy sacrifice march forward unceasingly, thy sacrifice that shall bring the whole epiphany of the godheads. Strew the seat of thy soul that there they may sit.
