atha yadabravīdvardhasveti | tasmādu ha smeṣumātrameva tiryaṅvardhata iśumātram prāṅkṣo vaivāvaraṃ samudraṃ dadhāvava pūrvaṃ sa yāvatsa āsa sahaiva tāvadannāda āsa
And because he (Tvashtri) said, 'Grow thou!' therefore he (Vritra) grew an arrow's range sideways and an arrow's range forward: he forced back both the western ocean and the eastern one; and in proportion as he extended did he devour the food.
