Devata: Indra
Chandas: Triṣṭubh

आद्रोदसी वितरं वि ष्कभायत्संविव्यानश्चिद्भियसे मृगं कः । जिगर्तिमिन्द्रो अपजर्गुराणः प्रति श्वसन्तमव दानवं हन् ॥

ād rodasī vitaraṃ vi ṣkabhāyat samvivyānaś cid bhiyase mṛgaṃ kaḥ | jigartim indro apajargurāṇaḥ prati śvasantam ava dānavam han ||

Ia meluaskan dan menyangga terpisah dua dunia; bahkan yang terbungkus ketakutan pun menjadi seperti makhluk yang gemetar. Indra, mengaum dahsyat, menumbangkan Dānava yang datang menghembus melawan—ia mematahkan serbuan kegelapan.
