He, Soma, like a courser in the floods invincible, made clean With hands, is resting in the jars.

क्रीळुर्मखो न मंहयुः पवित्रं सोम गच्छसि। दधत्स्तोत्रे सुवीर्यम्॥

krīḻurmakho na maṁhayuḥ pavitraṁ soma gacchasi | dadhatstotre suvīryam ||

Disporting, like a liberal chief, thou goest, Soma, to the sieve, Lending the laud a Hero's strength.
