Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 25 The second half of this verse runs as follows: Prá no yachatad avrkám prthù chardih prá devi gómatir ishah; "Do thou proffer to us a wolfless wide shelter, do thou, 0 goddess, proffer to us. --." The last two words, gómatir ishah, are generally explained as an instance of metonymy, which is common in the Rigveda: ´drinks having cows,´ i.e. ´drinks having milk, milky drinks.´ This is perhaps the meaning which Delbrück assigns to the words under discussion, for in the Index to his Vedische Chrestomathie (1874) he translates the adj. gomant in this passage by ´kuhreich´ (p. 68), and ish by ´Saft, Trank, Labung´ (p. 57), so that his translation would be ´kuhreiche Trünke´ by which he presumably means ´milky drinks.´ If this translation is correct, we may compare the similar metonymy in Hymn III. 42 (276), 1 and 7: - 1, Upa nah sutam a, gahi sómam indra gávaciram "O Indra, do thou come to our pressed soma-juice, mixed with milk (lit. ´mixed with cows´)," and 7, Imám indra gávaçiram yávaciram ca nah piba "O Indra, do thou drink this our milk-(lit. cow-) mixture and our barley-mixture."
