HYMN CXXIX

1These 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.
