They came bellowing and attacked that bull of the meadow in the middle of the stall. By him the thousand-fold shining one, the herd-master, rejoiced; the pulse-mound led the cows in front.
Approaching the bull, they made him roar in the midst of the battle. I, Mudgala, have thereby gained inwar hundreds and thousands of cattle well- pastured.
They came anear the bull; they made him thunder, made him pour rain down ere the fight was ended. And Mudgala thereby won in the contest well-pastured kine in hundreds and in thousands.
