vavrāso na ye svajāḥ svatavasa iṣaṃ svarabhijāyanta dhūtayaḥ | sahasriyāso apāṃ normaya āsā ghāvo vandyāso nokṣaṇaḥ

Surrounding, as it were, self-born, self-powerful, they spring to life the shakers-down of food and light; Like as the countess undulations of the floods, worthy of praise when near, like bullocks and like kine.
