RV 1.164.5

पाकः पृच्छामि मनसाविजानन् देवानाम् एना निहिता पदानि । वत्से बष्कये ऽधि सप्त तन्तून् वि तत्निरे कवय ओतवा उ ॥

pākaḥ pṛcchāmi manasāvijānan devānām enā nihitā padāni | vatse baṣkaye 'dhi sapta tantūn vi tatnire kavaya otavā u ||

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

Unripe in mind, in spirit undiscerning, I ask of these the Gods' established places; For up above the yearling Calf the sages, to form a web, their own seven threads have woven.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
