Rig Veda 7.104.18

Sanskrit (Devanagari)

वि तिष्ठध्वं मरुतो विक्ष्विछत गर्भायत रक्षसः सं पिनष्टन | वयो ये भूत्वी पतयन्ति नक्तभिर्ये वा रिपो दधिरे देवे अध्वरे

Spread out, ye Maruts, search among the people: seize ye and grind the Rākṣasas to pieces, Who fly abroad, transformed to birds, at night-time, or sully and pollute our holy worship.
