स्रुवेव यस्य हरिणी विपेततुः शिप्रे वाजाय हरिणी दविध्वतः । प्र यत्कृते चमसे मर्मृजद्धरी पीत्वा मदस्य हर्यतस्यान्धसः ॥

sruvéva yásya hárīṇī vipetátuḥ śipré vājā́ya hárīṇī dávīdhvataḥ | prá yát kṛté camáse marmṛ́jad dhárī pītvā́ mádasya haryatásyā́ndhasaḥ ||

Bagaikan dua senduk, dua yang kuning keemasan itu bergerak saling menjauh; pada pipi—titik pengikatan—dua daya kuning keemasan bergetar demi kelimpahan kekuatan. Apabila, dalam cawan yang telah disediakan, dua Hari mengelapnya hingga bersih—maka, setelah meminum ekstasi daripada sari Soma yang memikat, mereka mara menekan dalam mabuk daya.
