Translation

Thou findest not the wealthy man to be thy friend: those scorn thee who are flown with wine. What time thou thunderest and gatherest, then thou, even as a Father, art invoked.

How attribution was recorded1

PER_PASSAGE is an attribution the source states verse by verse; CONTAINER_INHERITED is a containing hymn's label projected onto each of its mantras. The two must not be summed: 15,177 of the 17,889 seer edges are inherited, every one of the Atharvaveda's 5,084 is, and every one of the Yajurveda's 2,240 is source-stated, so a blended total compares a statement of the text against a projection of this build.
