Paippalāda-Saṃhitā · Chapter 16.11

16.11.1

indro yātūnām abhavat parāśaro
havirmathīnām abhy āvivāsatām |
abhīd u śakraḥ paraśur
yathā vanaṃ pātreva
bhindant sata eti rakṣasaḥ ||

16.11.2

ulūkayātuṃ śuśulūkayātuṃ
jahi śvayātum uta kokayātum |
suparṇayātum uta gṛdhrayātuṃ
dṛṣadeva pra mṛṇa rakṣa indra ||

16.11.3

mā no rakṣo abhi naḍ yātumāvatām
apocchataṃ mithunā yā kimīdinā |
pṛthivī naḥ pārthivāt pātv aṃhaso
antarikṣaṃ divyāt pātv asmān ||

16.11.4

indra jahi pumāṃsaṃ yātudhānam
uta striyaṃ māyayā śāśadānām |
vigrīvāso mūradevā rudantu
mā te dṛśan sūryam uccarantam ||

16.11.5

prati cakṣva vi cakṣva-
-indraś ca soma jāgṛtam |
rakṣobhyo vadham asyatam
aśaniṃ yātumadbhyaḥ ||
