I worship them who have become irresistible by studying the Vedas, who are eloquent in discoursing on the scriptures, who are observant of the vow of Brahmacharya, and who are always devoted to the duties of officiating at the sacrifices of others and of teaching disciples.
ये वेदं प्राप्य दुर्धर्षा वाग्मिनो ब्रह्मचारिणः। याजनाध्यापने युक्ता नित्यं तान् पूजयाम्यहम्॥
