They went to Paruṣṇīm for benefit, not for nothing; Sudāsa Indra, leader of hosts, struck down foes and pierced mankind with mighty speech.

The waters followed their regular course to the Paruṣṇi, nor (wandered) beyond it; the quick courser(of the king) came to the accessible plural ces, and Indra made the idly-talking enemies, with their numerousprogeny, subject among men (to Sudāsa).

As to their goal they sped to their destruetion: they sought Parusni; e'en the swift returned not. Indra abandoned, to Sudas the manly, the swiftly flying foes, unmanly babblers.
