sa vetasuṃ daśamāyaṃ daśoṇiṃ tūtujimindraḥ svabhiṣṭisumnaḥ ā tugraṃ śaśvadibhaṃ dyotanāya māturna sīmupa sṛjā iyadhyai
He chose the tenth among the hosts, the tenfold prize, Indra, for prosperous favors. O mother, grant the brilliant gift to shine constantly and bestow the boundary for our prosperity this day.
Indra, the granter of wished-for felicity, compelled the many-fraudulent Etaśa and Dasoṇi, Tūtuji, Tugra and Ibha, always to come submissively to (the rājā) Dyotana, as a son (comes before a mother).
The crafty Vetasu, the swift Dasni, and Tugra speedily with all his servants, Hath Indra, gladdening with strong assistance, forced near as 'twere to glorify the Mother.
