10.138.5

ayu̍ddhaseno vi̱bhvā̍ vibhinda̱tā dāśa̍d vṛtra̱hā tujyā̍ni tejate |

Armed with resistless weapons, with vast power to cleave, the Vṛitra-slayer whets his darts and deals fordi wounds. Bright Ushas was afraid of Indra's slaughtering bolt: she went upon her way and left her chariot there.

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