The Pūrus know this thy heroic might—when, conquering, thou didst overthrow the autumnal forts, O Indra, didst overthrow them. Most lordly, Indra, smite the mortal who sacrificeth not, O lord of strength. Thou hast not reft away the mighty Earth; these Waters—rejoicing—these Waters (are thine to uphold).
Rishi: Indra-stuti tradition (RV-derived; specific r̥ṣi not determinable here)
Devata: Indra (with Earth and Waters as invoked supports)
Chandas: Triṣṭubh-like RV cadence
