YV 4.2d

Prajapati created cattle; they created went away from him; where they stayed, thence sprung the bean; those he followed with Pusan; Pusan said, 'With this do thou go before me; then shall cattle resort to thee.' 'Do thou go before me', said Soma, 'mine [2] is what grows on untilled (land).' 'Both of you shall I go before', he said; he went before them both; then indeed did cattle resort to Prajapati. For him who desires cattle should he offer this oblation of beans to Soma and Pusan; verily he has recourse to Soma and Pusan with their own share; verily they produce cattle for him. Soma is the impregnator of seed, Pusan the producer of cattle; verily Soma bestows seed upon him, Pusan produces cattle. a O Agni come to us with kine; O drop, delight us with increase; Indra is the supporter in our homes. b Savitr, the thousandfold, May he delight us in our homes; May Pusan come, may wealth (be ours). c May Dhatr give us wealth, The lord, the ruler of the world; May he favour us with a full (gift). d Tvastr the bull, the strong, May he delight us in our homes, With a thousand, with ten thousand. e Thou whereby the gods moved immortality [1], Enduring fame, in the sky, O increase of wealth, vouchsafe us A herd of kine for life. f Agni, lord of the house, Soma, all-winning, Savitr the wise; hail! g O Agni, lord of the house, with thy ghee portion do thou vouchsafe strength and force to him who advanceth; may I not wander from the highest of the path; may I become the head; hail! He who desires cattle should sacrifice with the Çitra (offering); Çitra is this (earth); in that in this (earth) all things are produced, thereby is this (earth) variegated (citra); he who knowing thus sacrifices with the Çitra desirous of cattle is propagated with offspring, with cattle, with pairings.
