Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895], at

HYMN XLII

1From Indra have I measured an eight-footed and nine-cornered.
  song, p. 302
 Delicate, faithful to the Law.
2Indra, both worlds complained to thee when uttering thy fearful
  roar,
 What time thou smotest Dasyus dead.
3Arising in thy might thy jaws thou shookest, Indra, having
  quaffed
 The Soma poured into the bowls.
