Verse 60.2

पितामहवरोत्सेकात् परमं दर्पमास्थितौ। अश्विनोर्माननार्थं हि सर्वलोकपितामहः॥ सर्वावध्यत्वमतुलमनयोर्दत्तवान् पुरा। वरोत्सेकेन मत्तौ च प्रमथ्य महतीं चमूम्॥ सुराणाममृतं वीरौ पीतवन्तौ महाबलौ।

pitāmahavarotsekāt paramaṃ darpamāsthitau| aśvinormānanārthaṃ hi sarvalokapitāmahaḥ|| sarvāvadhyatvamatulamanayordattavān purā| varotsekena mattau ca pramathya mahatīṃ camūm|| surāṇāmamṛtaṃ vīrau pītavantau mahābalau|

English Meaning

Formerly to honour Asvi the Frand-father, of all the worlds, made these two monkeys incapable of being slain by any. And crushing the mighty host of the celestials, these two heroes gifted with great prowess, and maddened with haughtiness in consequence of the boon, drank up nectar.
