Downward the drop took station in the radiant stream, moving, dark, with tenfold thousands. Indra, with his might, established it as it rolled and was driven on—cleansing away adhesions—delighting men.
Para baixo a gota tomou lugar na corrente radiante; em movimento, escura, com dez mil (ímpetos). Indra, com seu poder, a firmou enquanto ela rolava e era impelida adiante — removendo as aderências — alegrando os homens.
