Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.144.1

RV 1.144.1

एति प्र होता व्रतम् अस्य माययोर्ध्वां दधानः शुचिपेशसं धियम् । अभि स्रुचः क्रमते दक्षिणावृतो या अस्य धाम प्रथमं ह निंसते ॥

eti pra hotā vratam asya māyayordhvāṃ dadhānaḥ śucipeśasaṃ dhiyam | abhi srucaḥ kramate dakṣiṇāvṛto yā asya dhāma prathamaṃ ha niṃsate ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

The Priest goes forth to sacrifice, with wondrous power sending aloft the hymn of glorious brilliancy. He moves to meet the ladles turning to the right, which are the first to kiss the place where he abides.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
