Sukta 3.29
यदी मन्थन्ति बाहुभिर्वि रोचतेऽश्वो न वाज्यरुषो वनेष्वा । चित्रो न यामन्नश्विनोरनिवृतः परि वृणक्त्यश्मनस्तृणा दहन् ॥
yádī mánthanti bāhúbhir ví rocate ’śvó na vāj́y aruṣó váneṣv ā́ | citró na yā́mann aśvínor anivṛ́taḥ pári vṛṇakty áśmanaḥ tṛ́ṇā dáhan ||
When they churn with their arms, he shines out—like a swift red steed of force in the woods; like a brilliant journey of the Aśvins, unobstructed, he ranges around, burning up the stone-hardness and the dry grasses of the being.
