HYMN XXIV

To the Rivers 1. Forth from the Hills of Snow they stream, and meet in Sindhu    here or there.   To me the sacred Waters gave the balm that heals the heart's    disease. 2. Whatever rupture I have had that injured eyes or heels or toes.   All this the Waters, skilfullest physicians, shall make well again, 3. All Rivers who have Sindhu for your Lady, Sindhu for your   Queen,   Give us the balm that heals this ill: this boon let us enjoy from    you.
