Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 8.41.4

RV 8.41.4

यः ककुभो निधारयः पृथिव्याम् अधि दर्शतः । स माता पूर्व्यम् पदं तद् वरुणस्य सप्त्यं स हि गोपा इवेर्यो नभन्ताम् अन्यके समे ॥

yaḥ kakubho nidhārayaḥ pṛthivyām adhi darśataḥ | sa mātā pūrvyam padaṃ tad varuṇasya saptyaṃ sa hi gopā iveryo nabhantām anyake same ||

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

He, visible o'er all the earth, stablished the quarters of the sky: He measured out the eastern place, that is the fold of Varuna: like a strong herdsman is the God.
