1.105.8

sam mā̍ tapanty a̱bhita̍ḥ sa̱patnī̍r iva̱ parśa̍vaḥ |
mūṣo̱ na śi̱śnā vy a̍danti mā̱dhya̍ḥ sto̱tāra̍ṁ te śatakrato vi̱ttam me̍ a̱sya ro̍dasī ||

Like rival wives on every side enclosing ribs oppress me sore. O Ṣatakratu, biting cares devour me, singer of thy praise, as rats devour the weaver's threads. Mark this my woe, ye Earth and Heaven.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
