RV 1.8.7

यः कुक्षिः सोमपातमः समुद्र इव पिन्वते । उर्वीर् आपो न काकुदः ॥

yaḥ kukṣiḥ somapātamaḥ samudra iva pinvate | urvīr āpo na kākudaḥ ||

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

His belly, drinking deepest draughts of Soma, like an ocean swells, Like wide streams from the cope of heaven.
