Thus they urged across the rivers with their swift shafts, thus they struck with various blows. Thus, when called by the lord of Dasarājña, Indra, with the sacred priest Brahman, you Vasishthas proceeded.
In the same manner was he, (Sudāsa) enabled by them easily to cross the Sindhu river; in the samemanner, through them he easily slew his foe; so in like manner, Vasiṣṭhas, through your prayers, did Indradefend Sudāsa in the war with the ten kings.
So, verily, with these he crossed the river, in company with these he slaughtered Bheda. So in the fight with the Ten Kings, Vasisthas! did Indra help Sudas through your devotions.
