RV 1.52.6

परीं घृणा चरति तित्विषे शवो ऽपो वृत्वी रजसो बुध्नम् आशयत् । वृत्रस्य यत् प्रवणे दुर्गृभिश्वनो निजघन्थ हन्वोर् इन्द्र तन्यतुम् ॥

parīṃ ghṛṇā carati titviṣe śavo 'po vṛtvī rajaso budhnam āśayat | vṛtrasya yat pravaṇe durgṛbhiśvano nijaghantha hanvor indra tanyatum ||

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

Splendour encompassed thee, forth shone thy warrior might: the rain-obstructer lay in mid-air's lowest deep, What time, O Indra, thou didst cast thy thunder down upon the jaws of Vritra hard to be restrained.
