अतिष्ठत् • (átiṣṭhat)

   • c. 1700 BCE – 1200 BCE, Ṛgveda 4.18.8:

     मम॑च्च॒न त्वा॑ युव॒तिः प॒रास॒ मम॑च्च॒न त्वा॑ कु॒षवा॑ ज॒गार॑।
     मम॑च्चि॒दाप॒: शिश॑वे ममृड्यु॒र्मम॑च्चि॒दिन्द्र॒: सह॒सोद्अ॒तिष्ठत्॥

     mámaccaná tvā yuvatíḥ parā́sa mámaccaná tvā kuṣávā jagā́ra.
     mámaccidā́pa: śíśave mamṛḍyurmámaccidíndra: sáhasódatíṣṭhát.

     I cast you from me, mine,-your youthful mother: you, mine own offspring, Kusava has swallowed.
     To him, mine infant, were the waters gracious. Indra, my Son, rose up in conquering vigour.
