To star with light the southern sky.

Girt with his sages forth he went,

And southward in the firmament

New wreathed stars prepared to set

In many a sparkling coronet.

He threatened, blind with rage and hate,

Another Indra to create,

Or, from his throne the ruler hurled,

All Indraless to leave the world.

Yea, borne away by passion's storm,
