c7.64

*Who made the widespread earth when quaking steadfast,*
*Who brought to rest the agitated mountains,*
*Who measured out air's intermediate spaces,*
*Who gave the sky support: he, men, is Indra.*

*Heaven and earth themselves bow down before him,*
*Before his might the very mountains tremble.*
*Who, known as Soma-drinker, armed with lightning,*
*Is wielder of the bolt: he, men, is Indra.*
