Sukta 1.104

अव त्मना भरते केतवेदा अव त्मना भरते फेनमुदन् । क्षीरेण स्नातः कुयवस्य योषे हते ते स्यातां प्रवणे शिफायाः ॥

áva tmánā bharate kétavedā áva tmánā bharate phénam udán | kṣīréṇa snātáḥ kúyavasya yóṣe haté te syātāṃ pravaṇé śíphāyāḥ ||

Ke bawah, menurut kodratnya sendiri, Ketavedā bergerak; ke bawah, menurut kodratnya sendiri, buih di atas air bergerak. Dimandikan dengan susu, wahai istri Kuyava, semoga keduanya dipukul jatuh dan rebah di lereng Śiphā—biarlah kilau palsu binasa dalam turunnya sendiri.
