38. Then follows a verse to Indra (Vajasaneyi Samhita III, 34); for Indra is the deity of the sacrifice, and with Indra therefore he now connects the fire-worship: “At no time, O Indra, art thou barren; and never dost thou fail the worshipper—;” the worshipper, doubtless, is the sacrificer: “never dost thou harm the sacrificer,” this is what he thereby says: “—but more and evermore is thy gift increased, O mighty god!” thereby he says, “do thou make us ever more prosperous here!”
