Vedic Mythology c8.5

c8.5

The name occurs in the RV. about sixteen times in the plural, but is also found four times in the singular as representative of the group. Thus Indra or Agni-Soma are described as having robbed the cows from Paṇi (10, 67⁶; 1, 93⁴), or Soma is invoked to strike down the voracious Paṇi who is a wolf (6, 51¹⁴).
