. . — As he flies along on airy paths, Vata never rests on any day .... For what place was he born ? and from whence came he, — the vital breath of gods, the world's great offspring? The god, where'er he will, moves at his pleasure; his rushing sound we hear, — his form was never seen. ^ . . ." 38.
