índro yātūnā́m abhavat parāśaró havirmáthīnām abhy ā̀vívāsatām |
abhī́d u śakráḥ paraśúr yáthā vánaṃ pā́treva bhindánt satá etu rakṣásaḥ ||21||
Indra was the crusher-away of the familiar demons (yātú), of the oblation-disturbers, of them who strive to win upon [it]; let the mighty one (çakrá) attack them that are demoniacs as an ax the woods, splitting [them] like vessels.
