Sukta 8.12
यदा वृत्रं नदीवृतं शवसा वज्रिन्नवधीः । आदित्ते हर्यता हरी ववक्षतुः ॥
yadā́ vṛtráṃ nadī-vṛ́taṃ śáv asā vajrin ávadhīḥ | ā́d ít te haryatā́ hárī vavakṣatuḥ ||
Als du, o Vajra-Träger, mit deiner Kraft Vṛtra erschlugst, der die Ströme eingedämmt hielt, da trugen dich wahrlich deine eifrigen fuchsfarbenen Rosse dahin.
