Rig Veda 9.72.4: Mandala 9, Sukta 72, Mantra 4
Sukta 9.72
नृधूतो अद्रिषुतो बर्हिषि प्रियः पतिर्गवां प्रदिव इन्दुॠत्वियः । पुरंधिवान्मनुषो यज्ञसाधनः शुचिर्धिया पवते सोम इन्द्र ते ॥
nṛdhū́to ádriṣuto barhíṣi priyáḥ pátir gávāṃ pradíva índur ṛ́tviyaḥ | puraṃdhivā́n mánuṣo yajñá-sādhanaḥ śúcir dhiyā́ pavate sóma indra te ||
Purified by men and pressed by the stone, the beloved Indu flows upon the sacred seat; the lord of the rays of light, moving in the wide heaven, fit for the rite. Full of plenitude, serving the human being as the accomplisher of sacrifice, pure with the illumined thought, Soma streams for thee, O Indra.
