Sukta 4.1
ते मन्वत प्रथमं नाम धेनोस्त्रिः सप्त मातुः परमाणि विन्दन् । तज्जानतीरभ्यनूषत व्रा आविर्भुवदरुणीर्यशसा गोः ॥
té manvata prathamáṃ nā́ma dhenós tríḥ saptá mā́tuḥ paramā́ṇi vindan | táj jānatī́r abhy ànūṣata vrā́ āvír bhuvad aruṇī́r yaśásā góḥ ||
Mereka mengenali nama pertama Sang Sapi pemelihara (Dhenū), dan menemukan ukuran-ukuran tertinggi Sang Ibu—tiga kali tujuh. Mengetahui itu, kekuatan-kekuatan (vīraḥ) memujinya; sinar-sinar merah-bercahaya Sang Sapi pun tampak nyata dalam kemuliaan.
