Rig Veda 3.14.1: Mandala 3, Sukta 14, Mantra 1
Sukta 3.14
आ होता मन्द्रो विदथान्यस्थात्सत्यो यज्वा कवितमः स वेधाः । विद्युद्रथः सहसस्पुत्रो अग्निः शोचिष्केशः पृथिव्यां पाजो अश्रेत् ॥
ā hótā mandró vidáthāny asthāt satyó yajvā́ kavítamaḥ sá vedhā́ḥ | vidyúd-rathaḥ sáhasas-putró agníḥ śocíṣ-keśaḥ pṛthivyā́ṃ pā́jo aśret ||
The glad Flame, the Hotṛ, has taken his stand in the gatherings—true, a sacrificer, the most seer-wise, the knower of right workings. Agni, son of Force, whose car is lightning, whose hair is flame, has extended his might upon the earth.
