Plain text of Book 6, Hymn 126
Send forth thy voice aloud through earth and heaven, and let the world in all its breadth regard thee. O drum, accordant with the righteous and the mighty, drive thou afar, yea, very far, our foemen.
2 Thunder out strength and fill us full of vigour, yea, thunder forth and drive away misfortunes. Drive hence, O drum, drive thou away mischances. By God's leave be firm as a mighty fist.
3 Conquer those yonder and let these be victors. Let the drum speak aloud as battle's signal. Let our men, winged with horses, fly together. Let our car-warriors, O God the Mighty, be triumphant.
