RV 1.51.11

मन्दिष्ट यद् उशने काव्ये सचां इन्द्रो वङ्कू वङ्कुतराधि तिष्ठति । उग्रो ययिं निर् अपः स्रोतसासृजद् वि शुष्णस्य दृंहिता ऐरयत् पुरः ॥

mandiṣṭa yad uśane kāvye sacāṃ indro vaṅkū vaṅkutarādhi tiṣṭhati | ugro yayiṃ nir apaḥ srotasāsṛjad vi śuṣṇasya dṛṃhitā airayat puraḥ ||

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

When Indra hath rejoiced with Kavya Usana, he mounts his steeds who swerve wider and wider yet. The Strong hath loosed his bolt with the swift rush of rain, and he hath rent in pieces Susna's firm-built forts.
