Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 1.118.8

RV 1.118.8

युवं धेनुं शयवे नाधितायापिन्वतम् अश्विना पूर्व्याय । अमुञ्चतं वर्तिकाम् अंहसो निः प्रति जङ्घां विश्पलाया अधत्तम् ॥

yuvaṃ dhenuṃ śayave nādhitāyāpinvatam aśvinā pūrvyāya | amuñcataṃ vartikām aṃhaso niḥ prati jaṅghāṃ viśpalāyā adhattam ||

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

For ancient Sayu in his sore affliction ye caused his cow to swell with milk, O Asvins. The quail from her great misery ye delivered, and a new leg for Vispala provided.
