Sukta 5.32
त्यं चिदेषां स्वधया मदन्तं मिहो नपातं सुवृधं तमोगाम् । वृषप्रभर्मा दानवस्य भामं वज्रेण वज्री नि जघान शुष्णम् ॥
tyáṃ cid eṣāṃ svadháyā mádantaṃ mihó napātaṃ suvṛ́dhaṃ tamogā́m | vṛ́ṣaprabharmā dānávasya bhā́maṃ vájreṇa vajrī ní jaghāna śúṣṇam ||
Even him among them, drunken with his own self-law, the offspring of the mist, thriving, moving into darkness—Indra, the bull who bears the onrush, struck down with the thunderbolt the blazing might of the Dānava, Śuṣṇa.
