Hymn Xlvi

1Him who advances men to wealth, sends light to lead them in

their wars,

And quells their foemen in the fray:

2May he, the saviour much-invoked, may Indra bear us in a ship

Safely beyond all enemies.

3As such, O Indra, honour us with wealth and treasure: further

us,

And lead us to felicity.
