5.85.3

nī̱cīna̍bāra̱ṁ varu̍ṇa̱ḥ kava̍ndha̱m pra sa̍sarja̱ roda̍sī a̱ntari̍kṣam |
tena̱ viśva̍sya̱ bhuva̍nasya̱ rājā̱ yava̱ṁ na vṛ̱ṣṭir vy u̍natti̱ bhūma̍ ||

Varuṇa lets the big cask, opening downward, flow through the heaven and earth and air's midregion. Therewith the universe's Sovran waters earth as the shower of rain bedews the barley.

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