Sukta 10
(१३) ओष॑धीरे॒व र॑थन्त॒रेण॑ दे॒वा अ॑दुह्र॒न् व्यचो॑ बृह॒ता
óṣadhī́r iva rathantaráeṇa devā́ aduhran vyáco bṛhatā́
As one milks herbs, so with Rathantara the Gods milked forth Vyac, with Bṛhat.
जैसे लोग घास-पत्ती से दूध निकालते हैं। वैसे ही देवता ने रथन्तर से व्यच निकाला। और बृहत से भी वही किया।
