Sukta 1.115

तत्सूर्यस्य देवत्वं तन्महित्वं मध्या कर्तोर्विततं सं जभार । यदेदयुक्त हरितः सधस्थादाद्रात्री वासस्तनुते सिमस्मै ॥

tát sū́ryasya devatváṃ tán mahitváṃ madhyā́ kartór vítataṃ sáṃ jabhāra | yadéd áyukta harítaḥ sadhásthād ā́d rā́trī vā́sas tanute simásmai ||

Inilah ketuhanan Surya, inilah kebesarannya: dihimpunkannya anyaman yang terbentang luas di antara dua pelaku (Malam dan Fajar / dua ufuk). Apabila ia memasang Harit dari tempat persamaan mereka, maka Malam menghamparkan pakaiannya baginya—agar sang penerang muncul melalui laluan yang tertib.
