Griffith, [1896]\n1. GREAT, verily, is Indra's might. I have beheld, and hither comes\n Thy bounty, Dasyave-vrka!\n 2 A hundred oxen white of hue are shining like the stars in heaven,\n So tall, they seem to prop the sky.\n 3 Bamboos a hundred, a hundred dogs, a hundred skins of beasts well-tanned,\n A hundred tufts of Balbaja, four hundred red-hued mares are mine.\n 4 Blest by the Gods, Kinvayanas! be ye who spread through life on life:\n Like horses have ye stridden forth.\n 5 Then men extolled the team of seven not yet full-grown, its fame is great.\n The dark mares rushed along the paths, so that no eye could follow them.","title":"Rig Veda: Rig-Veda, Book 8: HYMN VII.
