Sukta 5.32
त्यस्य चिन्महतो निर्मृगस्य वधर्जघान तविषीभिरिन्द्रः । य एक इदप्रतिर्मन्यमान आदस्मादन्यो अजनिष्ट तव्यान् ॥
tyásya cin maható nirmṛgásya vádhar jaghāna táviṣībhir índraḥ | yá éka íd apratír mányamāna ā́d asmā́d anyó ajaniṣṭa távyān ||
Indra with his impetuous powers struck down the slaying-force of that great ‘wild one’ that ranged free. For he who deemed himself alone and without rival—there arose from him (or after him) another, mightier in power.
