AVŚ 2.5.5

इन्द्रस्य नु प्र वोचं वीर्याणि यानि चकार प्रथमानि वज्री । अहन्न् अहिम् अनु अपस् ततर्द प्र वक्षणा अभिनत् पर्वतानाम् ॥५॥

indrasya nu pra vocaṃ vīryāṇi yāni cakāra prathamāni vajrī | ahann ahim anu apas tatarda pra vakṣaṇā abhinat parvatānām ||5||

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

Now will I proclaim the heroisms of Indra, which first he of the thunderbolt (vajrín) did; he slew the dragon (áhi); he penetrated to the waters; he split ⌊forth⌋ the bellies (vakṣáṇā) of the mountains.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
