HYMN CXVII

A prayer for freedom from debt 1. That which I eat, a debt which still is owing, the tribute due to   Yama, which supports me,   Thereby may I be free from debt, O Agni. Thou knowest how    to rend all bonds asunder. 2. Still dwelling here we give again this present; we send it forth,    the living from the living.   Throwing away the grain whence I have eaten, thereby shall I    be free from debt, O Agni. 3. May we be free in this world and that yonder, in the third    world may we be unindebted.   May we, debt-free, abide in all the pathways, in all the worlds    which Gods and Fathers visit.
