RV 10.8.9

भूरीद् इन्द्र उदिनक्षन्तम् ओजो ऽवाभिनत् सत्पतिर् मन्यमानम् । त्वाष्ट्रस्य चिद् विश्वरूपस्य गोनाम् आचक्राणस् त्रीणि शीर्षा परा वर्क् ॥

bhūrīd indra udinakṣantam ojo 'vābhinat satpatir manyamānam | tvāṣṭrasya cid viśvarūpasya gonām ācakrāṇas trīṇi śīrṣā parā vark ||

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

Lord of the brave, Indra cleft him in pieces who sought to gain much strength and deemed him mighty. He smote his three heads from his body, seizing the cattle of the omniform Son of Tvastar.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
