1617a हये नरो मरुतो मृळता नस्तुवीमघासो अमॄता ऋतज्ञाः। सत्यश्रुतः कवयो युवानो बृहद्गिरयो बृहदुक्षमाणाः ॥ ऋ V 57 8 and V. 58. 8, पर्जन्यवाता वृषभा पृथिव्याः पुरीषाणि जिन्वतम्प्यानि । सत्यश्रुतः कवयो यस्य गीर्भिर्जगतः स्थातर्जगदा कृणुध्वम् ॥ ऋ. VI. 49. 6. All words including सत्यश्रुत कवय in the latter half of V 57 8 are epithets applied to Maruts in the first half. सत्यश्रुत. कवय. in the latter half of VI. 49. 6 are vocatives as the पदपाठ shows and are addressed to Maruts as in V 57 8 and V. 58 8. The words सत्यश्रुत. कवय. do not refer at all to Vedic poets in any of the three cases.
