### [c14.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.piggott-1950.c14.2)

The warrior's look is like a thunderous rain-cloud,  
when armed with mail, he seeks the lap of battle:  
Be thou victorious with unwounded body; so let the  
thickness of thy mail protect thee ...  
Whoso would kill us, whether he be a strange foe or  
one of us,  
May all the Gods discomfit him. My nearest, closest  
mail is prayer.  
\*Rigveda\*, VI, 75.\*
