\n \tOther flames are only branches of thy stock, O Fire. All the
\nimmortals take in thee their rapturous joy. O universal Godhead, thou art the navel-knot of the earths and their inhabitants; all
\nmen born thou controllest and supportest like a pillar.

\n \tThe Flame is the head of heaven and the navel of the earth
\nand he is the power that moves at work in the two worlds. O Vaishwanara, the gods brought thee to birth a god to be a light
\nto Aryan man.

\n \tAs the firm rays sit steadfast in the Sun, all treasures have been
\nplaced in the universal godhead and flame. King art thou of all the riches that are in the growths of the earth and the hills and
\nthe waters and all the riches that are in men.

\nHeaven and Earth grow as if vaster worlds to the Son. He is the priest of our sacrifice and sings our words even as might a
\nman of discerning skill. To Vaishwanara, for this most strong god who brings with him the light of the sun-world, its many
\nmighty waters because his strength is of the truth.

\n <\/p>\n

\nO universal godhead, O knower of all things born, thy excess of
\ngreatness overflows even the Great Heaven. Thou art the king of the toiling human peoples and by battle madest the supreme
\ngood for the gods.
\n\t\t\t<\/span> <\/p>\n

\n

<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n

\nThis is the universal godhead who by his greatness labours in all
\nthe peoples, the lustrous master of sacrifice, the Flame with his hundred treasures. This is he who has the word of the Truth.<\/span><\/p>\n
