HYMN XXXIII

A prayer to Indra for riches

1He who controls this air and men who aid his strength, and
  wood, and heaven, the lofty seat which Indra loves.
2The bold whose overpowering might the boldest never hath
  defied,— p. a215
 As erst still, unassailable is Indra's wrath, and fame, and force.
3May he bestow on us that wealth, far-spreading, bright with
  yellow hue.
 Indra is mightiest Lord among the folk.
