Sukta 10.71
बृहस्पते प्रथमं वाचो अग्रं यत्प्रैरत नामधेयं दधानाः । यदेषां श्रेष्ठं यदरिप्रमासीत्प्रेणा तदेषां निहितं गुहाविः ॥
bṛ́haspate prathamáṃ vā́co ágraṃ yát prā́irata nā́ma-dhéyaṃ dádhānāḥ | yád eṣā́ṃ śréṣṭhaṃ yád arí-pram āsī́t preṇā́ tád eṣā́ṃ níhitaṃ guhā́ āvíḥ ||
يا بْرِهَسْپَتي، حين حرّكوا أولَ ما حرّكوا مقدّمةَ فاك (Vāc: الكلام/اللفظ المقدّس)، مُقيمين الاسم—فإنّ خيرَ ما فيهم، وما كان بلا عيب، بدافعِ النفس: ذاك كان مودَعًا في الغار (guha) ثم انكشف.
