Translations signed

Gift of Paijavana, four horses bear me in foremost place, trained steeds with pearl to deck them. Sudas's brown steeds, firmly-stepping, carry me and my son for progeny and glory.

No recitation by a named reciter exists for this verse yet. Around eleven śākhās are still recited by an unbroken chain of teachers, and recording them is the most time-critical work in this project. If you recite, please get in touch.
