नहि स्थूर्यृतुथा यातमस्ति नोत श्रवो विविदे संगमेषु । गव्यन्त इन्द्रं सख्याय विप्रा अश्वायन्तो वृषणं वाजयन्तः ॥

náhi sthū́ry ṛtuthā́ yātám asti nótá śrávo vivide saṃgaméṣu | gavyánta índraṃ sakhyā́ya víprā aśvāyánto vṛ́ṣaṇaṃ vājáyantaḥ ||

Sesungguhnya kedatanganmu bukanlah secara kasar, melainkan menurut musim-musim; dan kemasyhuranmu pula bukan sekadar ditemui dalam pertemuan yang lahiriah. Para vipra yang terilham mencari Indra untuk persahabatan—mencari sinar pengetahuan, mencari kuda-kuda tenaga, menggerakkan Sang Banteng menuju kepenuhan kekuatan.
