- c. 1700 BCE – 1200 BCE, Ṛgveda 3.33.1:
  प्र पर्व॑तानामुश॒ती उ॒पस्था॒दश्वे॑ इव॒ विषि॑ते॒ हास॑माने ।
  गावे॑व शु॒भ्रे मा॒तरा॑ रिहा॒णे विपा॑ट्छुतु॒द्री पय॑सा जवेते ॥
  prá párvatānāmuśatī́ upásthādáśve iva víṣite hā́samāne.
  gā́veva śubhré mātárā rihāṇé vípāṭchutudrī́ páyasā javete.
  Forth from the bosom of the mountains, eager as two swift mares with loosened rein contending,
  Like two bright mother cows who lick their youngling, Vipāś and Śutudrī speed down their waters.
- c. 1700 BCE – 1200 BCE, Ṛgveda 4.30:
  अपो॒षा अन॑सः सर॒त्संपि॑ष्टा॒दह॑ बि॒भ्युषी॑ ।
  नि यत्सीं॑ शि॒श्नथ॒द्वृषा॑ ॥
  ए॒तद॑स्या॒ अनः॑ शये॒ सुसं॑पिष्टं॒ विपा॒श्य्आ ।
  स॒सार॑ सीं परा॒वतः॑ ॥
  ápoṣā́ ánasaḥ saratsáṃpiṣṭādáha bibhyúṣī.
  ní yátsīṃ śiśnáthadvṛ́ṣā.
  etádasyā ánaḥ śaye súsampiṣṭaṃ vípāśyā́.
  sasā́ra sīṃ parāvátaḥ.
  Then from her chariot Uṣas fled, affrighted, from her ruined car.
  When the strong God had shattered it.
  So there this car of Uṣas lay, broken to pieces, in [the river] Vipāś,
  And she herself fled far away.
