  2. Ṛgveda 1.118.2, English Come to us with your chariot triple seated, three-wheeled, of triple form, that rolleth lightly. Fill full our cows, give mettle to our horses, and make each hero son grow strong, O Asvins. Ralph T.H. Griffith
  3. Ṛgveda 1.118.3, English With your well-rolling car, descending swiftly, hear this the press-stone's song, ye Wonder-Workers. How then have ancient sages said, O Asvins, that ye most swiftly come to stay affliction? Ralph T.H. Griffith
  4. Ṛgveda 1.118.4, English O Asvins, let your falcons bear you hither, yoked to your chariot, swift, with flying pinions, Which, ever active, like the airy eagles, carry you, O Nasatyas, to the banquet. Ralph T.H. Griffith

  7. Ṛgveda 1.118.7, English To Atri, cast down to the fire that scorched him, ye gave, O Asvins, strengthening food and favour. Accepting his fair praises with approval, ye gave his eyes again to blinded Kanva. Ralph T.H. Griffith

  9. Ṛgveda 1.118.9, English A white horse, Asvins, ye bestowed on Pedu, a serpent-slaying steed sent down by Indra, Loud-neighing, conquering the foe, high-mettled, firm-limbed and vigorous, winning thousand treasures. Ralph T.H. Griffith

  11. Ṛgveda 1.118.11, English Come unto us combined in love, Nasatyas come with the fresh swift vigour of the falcon. Bearing oblations I invoke you, Asvins, at the first break of everlasting morning. Ralph T.H. Griffith
