Griffith, [1896]\n1. ALLIED with thee, in this thy friendship, Soma, Indra for man made waters flow together,\n Slew Ahi, and sent forth the Seven Rivers, and opened as it were obstructed fountains.\n 2 Indu, with thee for his confederate, Indra swiftly with might pressed down the wheel of S\u016brya.\n What rolled, all life's support, on heaven's high summit was separated from the great oppressor.\n 3 Indra smote down, Agni consumed, O Indu, the Dasyus ere the noontide in the conflict.\n Of those who gladly sought a hard-won dwelling he cast down many a thousand with his arrow.\n 4 Lower than all besides hast thou, O Indra, cast down the Dasyus, abject tribes of D\u0101sas.\n Ye drave away, ye put to death the foemen, and took great vengeance with your murdering weapons.\n 5 So, of a truth, Indra and Soma, Heroes, ye burst the stable of the kine and horses,\n The stable which the bar or stone obstructed; and piercing through set free the habitations.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 4: HYMN XXVIII.
