Men offer thee the first-fruits of corn;

all the gods adore thee!...

A festal song is raised for thee on the harp,

with the accompaniment of the hand.

Thy young men and thy children acclaim thee,

and prepare their exercises.

Thou art the august ornament of the earth,

letting thy bark advance before men,

lifting up the heart of women in labour,

and loving the multitude of the flocks.
