The Orion, or Researches into the Antiquity of the Vedas c11.90

c11.90

∗ The only other place where krintatra is used in the Rigveda is v. 27. 13, which Yâska and Sâyaṇa both interpret to mean that "waters come up from krintatra i. e., a cloud." But it may be as well asked if krintatra cannot here mean "from below."
