The Rig Veda — Mandala 1, Hymn 166 (1896)
“ Ye who with mighty powers have stirred the regions up, your coursers have sped forth directed by themselves. All creatures of the earth, all dwellings are afraid, for brilliant is your coming with your spears advanced. 5. When they in dazzling rush have made the mountains roar, and shaken heaven's high back in their heroic strength, Each sovran of the forest fears as ye drive near, aid the shrubs fly before you swift as whirling wheels. 6. Terrible Maruts, ye with ne'er-diminished host, with great benevolence fulfil our heart's desire. ”
