Indra, reflecting the sky against the earth, knows all the realms and strikes the dryness. He pierced the mountain with the sun and shook with mighty force the trembling ones.
Indra, the counterpart of heaven and earth, is cognizant of all sacrifices, he is the slayer of Śuṣṇa; hespread out the spacious heaven with the sun (to light it up); best of proppers, he propped up (the heaven) with aprop.
The counterpart of heaven and earth is Indra: he knoweth all libations, slayeth Susna. The vast sky with the Sun hath he extended, and, best otpillars, stayed it with a pillar.
