2.2.4

tam u̱kṣamā̍ṇa̱ṁ raja̍si̱ sva ā dame̍ ca̱ndram i̍va su̱ruca̍ṁ hvā̱ra ā da̍dhuḥ |
pṛśnyā̍ḥ pata̱raṁ ci̱taya̍ntam a̱kṣabhi̍ḥ pā̱tho na pā̱yuṁ jana̍sī u̱bhe anu̍ ||

Him have they set in his own dwelling, in the vault, like the Moon waxing, fulgent, in the realm of air. Bird of the firmament, observant with his eyes, guard of the place as 'twere, looking to Gods and men.

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