Mantra 89
Rishi: Traditionally attributed within Indra-invitatory strata to Ṛgvedic seer-lineages (general Indra-sūkta tradition); VS redaction transmits without explicit r̥ṣi colophon here.
Devata: Indra
Chandas: Tr̥ṣṭubh-like cadence (as transmitted in Yajus adaptation; metrical strictness is secondary in Yajurvedic deployment).
