thou art armed with the bow, and thou bearest the Khattanga and the Jharjhara in thy hands.  Thou art he who cuttest down and piercest and smitest.  Thou art he who leads (all creatures) and he who gives them pain and grief.  Thou art Righteousness which is marked by ten virtues; thou art Wealth or Profit of every kind; and thou art Pleasure.  Thou art Ganga, thou art the Oceans, thou art the Rivers, thou art the lakes, and thou art the tanks.  Thou art the thin creepers, thou art the thicker creeping plants, thou art all kinds of grass, and thou art the deciduous herbs.  Thou art all the lower animals and thou art the birds.  Thou art the origin of all objects and acts, and thou art that season which yields fruits and flowers.  Thou art the beginning and thou art the end of the Vedas; thou art the Gayatri, and thou art Om.  Thou art Green, thou art Red, thou art Blue, thou art Dark, thou art of Bloody hue, thou art of the colour of the Sun, thou art Tawny, thou art Brown, and thou art Dark blue.[1420] Thou art without colour, thou art of the best colour, thou art the maker of colours, and thou art without comparison.  Thou art of the name of Gold, and thou art fond of Gold.  Thou art Indra, thou art Yama, thou art the Giver of boons, thou art the Lord of wealth, and thou art Agni.  Thou art the Eclipse, thou art the Fire called Chitrabhanu, thou art Rahu, and thou art the Sun.  Thou art the fire upon which sacrificial butter is poured.  Thou art He who pours the butter.  Thou art He in honour of whom the butter is poured, thou art the butter itself that is poured, and thou art the puissant Lord of all.  Thou art those sections of the Brahmans that are called Trisuparna, thou art all the Vedas; and thou art the sections called Satarudriya in the Yajuses.  Thou art the holiest of holies, and the auspicious of all auspicious things.  Thou animatest the inanimate body.  Thou art the Chit that dwellest in the human form.  Invested with attributes, thou becomest subject to Destruction.  Thou art Jiva, that is He who is never subject to destruction when uninvested with attributes.  Thou art full yet thou becomest liable to decay and death in the form of the body which is Jiva’s accompaniment.  Thou art the breath of life, and thou art Sattwa, thou art Rajas, thou art Tamas, and thou art not subject to error.  Thou art the breaths called Prana, Apana, Samana, Udana, and Vyana.  Thou art the opening of the eye and shutting of the eye.  Thou art the act of Sneezing and thou art the act of Yawning.  Thou art of red eyes which are ever turned inwards.  Thou art of large mouth and large stomach.[1421] The bristles on thy body are like needles.  The beard is green.  Thy hair is turned upwards.  Thou art swifter than the swiftest.  Thou art conversant with the principles of music both vocal and instrumental, and fond of both vocal and instrumental music.[1422] Thou art a fish roving in the waters, and thou art a fish entangled in the net.  Thou art full, thou art fond of sports,
