1.52.6

parī̍ṁ ghṛ̱ṇā ca̍rati titvi̱ṣe śavo̱ 'po vṛ̱tvī raja̍so bu̱dhnam āśa̍yat |
vṛ̱trasya̱ yat pra̍va̱ṇe du̱rgṛbhi̍śvano nija̱ghantha̱ hanvo̍r indra tanya̱tum ||

Splendour encompassed thee, forth shone thy warrior might: the rain-obstructer lay in mid-air's lowest deep, What time, O Indra, thou didst cast thy thunder down upon the jaws of Vritra hard to be restrained.

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