9.69.1

iṣu̱r na dhanva̱n prati̍ dhīyate ma̱tir va̱tso na mā̱tur upa̍ sa̱rjy ūdha̍ni |
u̱rudhā̍reva duhe̱ agra̍ āya̱ty asya̍ vra̱teṣv api̱ soma̍ iṣyate ||

LAID like an arrow on the bow the hymn hath been loosed like a young calf to the udder of its dam. As one who cometh first with full stream she is milked the Soma is impelled to this man's holy rites.

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