RV 1.61.10

अस्येद् एव शवसा शुषन्तं वि वृश्चद् वज्रेण वृत्रम् इन्द्रः । गा न व्राणा अवनीर् अमुञ्चद् अभि श्रवो दावने सचेताः ॥

asyed eva śavasā śuṣantaṃ vi vṛścad vajreṇa vṛtram indraḥ | gā na vrāṇā avanīr amuñcad abhi śravo dāvane sacetāḥ ||

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

Through his own strength Indra with bolt of thunder cut piece-meal Vrtra, drier up of waters. He let the floods go free, like cows imprisoned, for glory, with a heart inclined to bounty.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
