Ushas is a radiant maiden, born in the sky, daughter of Dyaus.
The eighth remains among men as Dyaus, the sky, in the form of the eunuch Bhîshma.
At the birth of thy splendor Dyaus trembled, the Earth trembled for fear of thy anger.
Even if his name mean ‘sky,’ Dyaus, Zeus, we must ask what mode of conceiving ‘sky’ is original.
The oldest among the gods of heaven is Dyaus (identical with the Greek Zeus).
