HYMN XLII

HYMN XLII 1. From Indra have I measured an eight-footed and nine-cornered.    song, Delicate, faithful to the Law. 2. Indra, both worlds complained to thee when uttering thy fearful    roar,   What time thou smotest Dasyus dead. 3. Arising in thy might thy jaws thou shookest, Indra, having    quaffed   The Soma poured into the bowls.
