RV 3.17.1

समिध्यमानः प्रथमानु धर्मा सम् अक्तुभिर् अज्यते विश्ववारः । शोचिष्केशो घृतनिर्णिक् पावकः सुयज्ञो अग्निर् यजथाय देवान् ॥

samidhyamānaḥ prathamānu dharmā sam aktubhir ajyate viśvavāraḥ | śociṣkeśo ghṛtanirṇik pāvakaḥ suyajño agnir yajathāya devān ||

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

Duly enkindled after ancient customs, bringing all treasures, he is balmed with unguents,- Flame-haired, oil-clad, the purifying Agni, skilled in fair rites, to bring the Gods for worship.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
