10. [Vajasaneyi Samhita VIII, 41], “Mightily shineth the towering form of the ball,”—for mightily indeed shines that towering form of the ball, to wit, yonder burning (sun);—“the bright one, the leader of the bright one, Soma, the leader of Soma,”—he thereby makes that bright (sun) the leader of the bright (Soma), and Soma the leader of the Soma;—“what indestructible, watchful name there is of thine, for that do I take thee;”—for this, to wit, speech, is indeed his (Soma's) indestructible (adabhya), watchful name: it is thus speech he thereby takes for speech.
