HYMN LXXXVII

A benediction addressed to a newly elected King 1. Here art thou: I have chosen thee. Stand stedfast and immov- able. Let all the clans desire thee: let not thy kingdom fall away. 2. Be even here: fall not away: be like a mountain unremoved. Stand stedfast here like Indra’s self, and hold the kingship in the grasp. 3. This man hath Indra stablished, made secure by constant sacri- fice. Soma, and Brāhmanaspati here present bless and comfort him!
