Paippalāda-Saṃhitā · Chapter 16.26
ayaṃ pipāna indriyaṃ
rayiṃ bibharti cetanīm |
ayaṃ dhenuṃ sudughāṃ nityavatsāṃ
vaśaṃ duhe vipaścitaṃ puro divaḥ ||
piśaṅgarūpo nabhaso vayodhā
aindraḥ śuṣmo viśvarūpo na āgan |
prajām asmabhyaṃ dadhad rayiṃ ca
rāyaspoṣam upasatvā sadema ||
etaṃ vo yuvānaṃ pari dadhmo atra
tena krīḍantīś carata vaśām̐ anu |
mā no hiṃsiṣṭa januṣā subhāgā
rāyaś ca poṣair abhi naḥ sacadhvam ||
upehopaparcano
'smin goṣṭha upa pṛñcatu |
upa ṛṣabhasya yad reta
upendra tava vīryam ||
