  1. Ṛgveda 4.27.1, English I, As I lay within the womb, considered all generations of these Gods in order. A hundred iron fortresses confined me, but forth I flew with rapid speed a Falcon, Ralph T.H. Griffith
  2. Ṛgveda 4.27.2, English Not at his own free pleasure did he bear me: he conquered with his strength and manly courage. Straightway the Bold One left the fiends behind him and passed the winds as he grew yet more mighty. Ralph T.H. Griffith
  3. Ṛgveda 4.27.3, English When with loud cry from heaven down sped the Falcon, thence hasting like the wind he bore the Bold One, Then, wildly raging in his mind, the archer Kṛiṣânu aimed and loosed the string to strike him. Ralph T.H. Griffith
  4. Ṛgveda 4.27.4, English The Falcon bore him from heaven's lofty summit as the swift car of Indra's Friend bore Bhujyu. Then downward hither fell a flying feather of the Bird hasting forward in his journey. Ralph T.H. Griffith
  5. Ṛgveda 4.27.5, English And now let Maghavan accept the beaker, white, filled with milk, filled with the shining liquid; The best of sweet meath which the priests have offered: that Indra to his joy may drink, the Hero, that he may take and drink it to his rapture. Ralph T.H. Griffith
