He pierces the axe, he pierces the strong stone; Indra pierces what opposes; his effort churns forth foam.
As (the tree) suffers pain from the axe, as the śimbal flower is (easily) cut off, as the injured cauldron leaking scatters foam, so may mine enemy perish.
He heats his very axe, and then cuts a mere Semal blossom off. O Indra, like a caldron cracked and seething, so he pours out foam.
