Rig Veda 10.34.7: Mandala 10, Sukta 34, Mantra 7
Sukta 10.34
अक्षास इदङ्कुशिनो नितोदिनो निकृत्वानस्तपनास्तापयिष्णवः । कुमारदेष्णा जयतः पुनर्हणो मध्वा सम्पृक्ताः कितवस्य बर्हणा ॥
akṣā́sa íd aṅkuśíno nitodíno ni-kṛtvā́nas tápanās tāpayiṣṇávaḥ | kumāradeṣṇā́ jáyataḥ punarháṇo mádhvā sámpṛktāḥ kitavásya barháṇā ||
Dadu-dadu itu sungguh laksana mata kail penggiring dan penusuk; mereka menebas dan membakar, menyeksa. Mereka menang berulang-ulang, merampas bahkan bahagian si budak; bercampur dengan umpan manis, mereka menjadi daya yang menghimpit si penjudi.
