अव सवयुक्ता दिव आ वर्था ययुरमर्त्याः कशया चोदत तमना | अरेणवस्तुविजाता अचुच्यवुर्द्र्ळ्हानि चिन मरुतो भराजद्र्ष्टयः

Self-yoked they have descended lightly from the sky. With your own lash, Immortals, urge yourselves to speed. Unstained by dust the Maruts, mighty in their strength, have cast down e’en firm things, armed with their shining spears.
