Rig Veda 3.32.6: Mandala 3, Sukta 32, Mantra 6
Sukta 3.32
त्वमपो यद्ध वृत्रं जघन्वाँ अत्याँ इव प्रासृजः सर्तवाजौ । शयानमिन्द्र चरता वधेन वव्रिवांसं परि देवीरदेवम् ॥
tvám apó yád dha vṛtráṃ jaghanvā́m̐ atyā́n iva prá̄sṛjaḥ sártavā́jau | śáyānam indra cáratā vadhéna vavri-vā́ṃsaṃ pári devī́r ádevam ||
When you had slain Vṛtra, you drove the waters forth, like racers released to run in the contest. Indra, you struck down with your moving blow the one who lay there, the coverer encircling the divine streams, the undivine power.
