विश्वानि शक्रो नर्याणि विद्वान् अपो रिरेच सखिभिर् निकामैः । अश्मानं चिद् ये बिभिदुर् वचोभिर् व्रजम् गोमन्तम् उशिजो वि वव्रुः ॥६॥

Sakra who knoweth well all human actions hath with his eager Friends let loose the waters. They with their songs cleft e'en the mountain open and willingly disclosed the stall of cattle.
