ukṣā mahānabhi vavakṣa ene ajarastasthāvitaūtirṛṣvaḥ | urvyāḥ pado ni dadhāti sānau rihantyūdho aruṣāso asya

As a great Steer he grew to these his Parents; sublime he stands, untouched by eld, far-reaching. He plants his footsteps on the lofty ridges of the broad earth: his red flames lick the udder.
