HYMN CXXIX

HYMN CXXIX 1. These mares come springing forward to Pratipa Prātisutvana. 34. One of them is Hariknikā. Hariknikā, what seekest thou? 56. The excellent, the golden son: where now hast thou aban-    doned him? 78. There where around those distant trees, three Sisus that are    standing there, 910. Three adders, breathing angrily, are blowing loud the    threatening horn. 1112. Hither hath come a stallion: he is known by droppings on    his way, 1314. As by their dung the course of kine. What wouldst thou in    the home of men? 1516. Barley and ripened rice I seek. On rice and barley hast thou    fed, 1718. As the big serpent feeds on sheep. Cow's hoof and horse's    tail hast thou, 1920. Winged with a falcon's pinion is that harmless swelling of    thy tongue.
