RV 1.163.12

उप प्रागाच् छसनं वाज्य् अर्वा देवद्रीचा मनसा दीध्यानः । अजः पुरो नीयते नाभिर् अस्यानु पश्चात् कवयो यन्ति रेभाः ॥

upa prāgāc chasanaṃ vājy arvā devadrīcā manasā dīdhyānaḥ | ajaḥ puro nīyate nābhir asyānu paścāt kavayo yanti rebhāḥ ||

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

The strong Steed hath come forward to the slaughter, pondering with a mind directed God-ward. The goat who is his kin is led before him the sages and the singers follow after.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
