1.61.10

a̱syed e̱va śava̍sā śu̱ṣanta̱ṁ vi vṛ̍śca̱d vajre̍ṇa vṛ̱tram indra̍ḥ |
gā na vrā̱ṇā a̱vanī̍r amuñcad a̱bhi śravo̍ dā̱vane̱ sace̍tāḥ ||

Through his own strength Indra with bolt of thunder cut piece-meal Vṛitra, drier up of waters. He let the floods go free, like cows imprisoned, for glory, with a heart inclined to bounty.

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