Sukta 9.77
स पूर्व्यः पवते यं दिवस्परि श्येनो मथायदिषितस्तिरो रजः । स मध्व आ युवते वेविजान इत्कृशानोरस्तुर्मनसाह बिभ्युषा ॥
sá pū́rvyaḥ pavate yáṃ divás pári śyénō mathā́yad iṣitás tiró rájaḥ | sá mádhva ā́ yuvate vévijāna ít kṛśā́nōr ástuḥ mánasā́ha bíbhyuṣā ||
That ancient one purifies and streams—he whom the falcon brought from beyond, from the heaven across the mid-region. He hastens with honeyed delight, quivering with power; even from the archer (Kṛśānu), from his bow, he was feared in mind.
