Hymn V

1For him they made the Archer Bhava a deliverer from the inter-

mediate space of the eastern region. Bhava the Archer, a

deliverer, delivers him from the intermediate space of the

eastern region. Neither Sarva nor Bhava nor Isna slays him

who possesses this knowledge, or his cattle, or his kinsmen.

2They made Sarva the Archer his deliverer from the intermediate

space of the southern region, etc, as in verse 1.

3They made Pasupati the Archer his deliverer from the inter-

mediate space of the western region, etc.

4They made the Awful God, the Archer, his deliverer from the

intermediate space of the northern region, etc, as above.

5They made Rudra the Archer his deliverer from the intermediate

space of the region of the nadir etc.

6They made Mahdeva his deliverer from the intermediate space

of the region of the zenith, etc.

7They made Isana the Archer his deliverer from all the inter-

mediate regions. Isna the Archer, a deliverer, delivers him

from all the intermediate regions. Neither Sarva nor Bhava,

nor Isana slays him who possesses this knowledge, or his cattle,

or his kinsmen.
