Roman (IAST) transliteration rendered by HREEM from the edition's Devanagari; the Devanagari is the edition's own.
When Sarama had found the mountain's fissure, that vast and ancient place she plundered thoroughly. In the floods' van she led them forth, light-footed: she who well knew came first unto their lowing.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 3.31.6; the wording of this text may differ in places.
