RV 10.60.8

यथा युगं वरत्रया नह्यन्ति धरुणाय कम् । एवा दाधार ते मनो जीवातवे न मृत्यवे ऽथो अरिष्टतातये ॥

yathā yugaṃ varatrayā nahyanti dharuṇāya kam | evā dādhāra te mano jīvātave na mṛtyave 'tho ariṣṭatātaye ||

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

As with the leather thong they bind the chariot yoke to hold it fast, So have I held thy spirit fast, held it for life and not for death, held it for thy security.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
