RV 8.4.20

धीभिः सातानि काण्वस्य वाजिनः प्रियमेधैर् अभिद्युभिः । षष्टिं सहस्रानु निर्मजाम् अजे निर् यूथानि गवाम् ऋषिः ॥

dhībhiḥ sātāni kāṇvasya vājinaḥ priyamedhair abhidyubhiḥ | ṣaṣṭiṃ sahasrānu nirmajām aje nir yūthāni gavām ṛṣiḥ ||

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

What by his morning songs Kanva, the powerful, hath, with the Priyamedhas, gained- The herds of sixty thousand pure and spotless kine, have I, the Rsi, driven away.
