परायतीं मातरमन्वचष्ट न नानु गान्यनु नू गमानि । त्वष्टुर्गृहे अपिबत्सोममिन्द्रः शतधन्यं चम्वोः सुतस्य ॥

parāyátīṃ mātáram ánv acaṣṭa ná nā́nu gā́ni ánu nū́ gamāni | tváṣṭur gṛhé apibat sómam índraḥ śatá-dhanyaṃ camvóḥ sutásya ||

Ia mengawasi ibunya yang lari menjauh, (seraya berkata): “Tidak demikian—aku pun tidak akan mengikuti jejak-jejak biasa; aku tidak akan berjalan lewat jalan yang lazim.” Di rumah Tvaṣṭṛ, Indra meminum Soma—tegukan yang melimpah—yang diperas dalam cawan.
