AVŚ 19.49.4

सिंहस्य रात्र्य् उशती पींषस्य व्याघ्रस्य द्वीपिनो वर्च आ ददे । अश्वस्य ब्रध्नं पुरुषस्य मायुं पुरु रूपाणि कृणुषे विभाती ॥४॥

siṃhasya rātry uśatī pīṃṣasya vyāghrasya dvīpino varca ā dade | aśvasya bradhnaṃ puruṣasya māyuṃ puru rūpāṇi kṛṇuṣe vibhātī ||4||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

The eager night has taken to herself the splendor of the lion, of the stag, of the tiger, of the leopard, the horse's bottom, man's (púruṣa) roar (? māyú); many forms thou makest for thyself, shining out.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
