2.24.8

ṛ̱tajye̍na kṣi̱preṇa̱ brahma̍ṇa̱s pati̱r yatra̱ vaṣṭi̱ pra tad a̍śnoti̱ dhanva̍nā |
tasya̍ sā̱dhvīr iṣa̍vo̱ yābhi̱r asya̍ti nṛ̱cakṣa̍so dṛ̱śaye̱ karṇa̍yonayaḥ ||

With his swift bow, strung truly, Brahmaṇaspati reaches the mark whate'er it be that he desires. Excellent are the arrows wherewithal he shoots, keen-eyed to look on men and springing from his ear.

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