MANDALA V, HYMN 87. ASHTAKA IV, ADHYÂYA 4, VARGA 33–34.
To the Maruts (THE STORM-GODS). 1. Let your voice-born prayers go forth to the great Vishnu, accompanied by the Maruts, Evayâmarut, and to the chasing host, adorned with good rings, the strong, in their jubilant throng, to the shouting power (of the Maruts).
2. O Maruts, you who are born great, and proclaim it yourselves by knowledge, Evayâmarut, that power of yours cannot be approached by wisdom, that (power) of theirs (cannot be approached) by gift or might"; they are like unapproachable mountains.
3. They who are heard with their voice from the high heaven, the brilliant and strong, Evayâmarut, in whose council no tyranti reigns, the rushing chariots ? of these roaring Maruts come forth, like fires with their own lightning.
4. The wide-striding (Vishnu) strode forth from the great common seat, Evayâmarut. When he has started by himself from his own place along the ridges, O ye striving, mighty? Maruts, he goes together with the heroes (the Maruts), conferring blessings.
5. Impetuous, like your own shout, the strong one (Vishnu) made everything tremble, the terrible, the wanderer?, the mighty, Evayâmarut; strong with him you advanced self-luminous, with firm reins, golden coloured, well-armed?, speeding along.
6. Your greatness is infinite, ye Maruts, endowed
