15.3.9

tad etad vārtraghnam eva uktham yan marutvatīyam / (soma: mādhyaṃdina savana)

insight, O Soma' are addressed to Agni and Soma. Agni and Soma were within Vṛtra; Indra was unable to hurl his bolt against them; they went out for this share and for that which is theirs in the full moon sacrifice. The Marutvatīya is a hymn connected with the slaying of Vṛtra; by it Indra slew Vṛtra.
