The Hymns of the Samaveda is a comprehensive book by Ralph T.H. Griffith that explores the ancient Hindu scriptures known as the Samaveda. The Samaveda is one of the four Vedas, which are considered to be the most important and sacred texts of Hinduism. This book contains a translation of the hymns of the Samaveda, along with an introduction that provides historical and cultural context for the text. The hymns themselves are a collection of songs and chants that were used in Vedic rituals and ceremonies. They are considered to be some of the oldest and most important religious texts in the world, and are still used today in Hindu worship. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of Hinduism, as well as for anyone interested in learning more about this ancient and complex religion.1. Hither, for powerful kinship, I call Agni, him who prospers you, Most frequent at our solemn rites. 2. May Agni with his pointed blaze cast down each fierce devouring fiend: May Agni win us wealth by war! 3. Agni, be gracious; thou art great: thou hast approached the pious man, Hast come to sit on sacred grass.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
