Kind-thoughted is the noble, gladdening, friendly one.

Approach, O beauteous hero, this auspicious pair that draws the car!
These two are coming near to us.

Bend lowly down, as 'twere, your beads: be stands amid the water-flood,
Pointing with his ten horns the way.

Even fiercely-moving Vritra's head he served with his thunderbolt,
His mighty hundred-knotted bolt.
