Indra- The original Dragon slayer

Indra- The original Dragon slayer. Who Is Indra? He who, just born, chief God of lofty spirit by power and might, became the Gods' protector; before whose breath through greatness of his valour the two worlds trembled: He, O men, is Indra. He who fixed fast and firm the earth that staggered, and set at rest the agitated mountains; who measured out the air's wide middle region and gave the heaven support: He, men, is Indra. Who slew the Dragon, freed the Seven Rivers, and drove the cattle forth from the cave of Vala; begat the fire between two stones; the despoiler in warriors' battle: He, O men, is Indra. By whom this universe was made to tremble, who chased away the humbled brood of demons, who, like a gambler gathering his winnings, seized the foe's riches: He, O men, is Indra. Of whom, the Terrible, they ask, Where is He? or verily they say of him, He is not. He sweeps away, like birds, the foe's possessions. Have faith in him, for He, O men, is Indra. Stirrer to action of the poor and lowly, of priest, of suppliant who sings his praises; who, fair-faced, favours him who presses Soma with stones made ready: He, O men, is Indra. He under whose supreme control are horses, all chariots, and the villages, and cattle; he who gave being to the Sun and Morning, who leads the waters: He, O men, is Indra. To whom two armies cry in close encounter, both enemies, the stronger and the weaker; whom two invoke upon one chariot mounted, each for himself: He, O ye men, is Indra. Without whose help our people never conquer; whom, battling, they invoke to give them succour; he of whom all this world is but the copy, who shakes things unshakeable: He, O men, is Indra. He who hath smitten, ere they knew their danger, with his hurled weapon many grievous sinners; who pardons not his boldness who provokes him; who slays the Dasyus: He, O men, is Indra. He who discovered, in the fortieth autumn, Shambara as he dwelt among the mountains; who slew the Dragon putting forth his vigour, the demon lying there: He, men, is Indra. Who with seven guiding reins, the Bull, the Mighty, set free the Seven great rivers to flow at pleasure; who, thunder-armed, rent Rauhina in pieces when scaling heaven: He, O ye men, is Indra. Even the Heaven and Earth bow down before him, before his very breath the mountains tremble. Known as the Soma-drinker, armed with thunder, who wields the bolt: He, O ye men, is Indra. Who aids with favour him who pours the Soma and him who brews it, sacrificer, singer. Whom prayer exalts, and pouring forth of Soma, and this our gift: He, O ye men, is Indra. Thou verily art fierce and true who sendest strength to the man who brews and pours libation. So may we evermore, thy friends, O Indra, speak loudly to the synod with our heroes.
