Sukta 1.64
ईशानकृतो धुनयो रिशादसो वातान्विद्युतस्तविषीभिरक्रत । दुहन्त्यूधर्दिव्यानि धूतयो भूमिं पिन्वन्ति पयसा परिज्रयः ॥
īśāna-kṛ́to dhúnayo riśā́daso vātā́n vi-dyútaḥ táviṣībhir akrata | duhánty ū́dhar divyā́ni dhūtáyo bhū́miṃ pinvanti páyasā pári-jrayaḥ ||
Mighty in their making, the roaring ones, devourers of resistance, have fashioned the winds and the lightnings by their strengths. The impelling powers milk the heavenly udders; they swell the earth with the streams of plenitude as they move around it.
