Rig Veda 10.31.8

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

नैतावदेना परो अन्यदस्त्युक्षा स दयावाप्र्थिवीबिभर्ति | तवदं पवित्रं कर्णुत सवधावान यदींसूर्यं न हरितो वहन्ति

IAST Romanisation

naitāvadenā paro anyadastyukṣā sa dyāvāpṛthivībibharti | tvadaṃ pavitraṃ kṛṇuta svadhāvān yadīṃsūryaṃ na harito vahanti

English Translation (Griffith)

Not only here is this: more is beyond us. He is the Bull, the Heaven's and Earth's supporter. With power divine he makes his skin a filter, when the Bay Coursers bear him on as Sūrya.
