10.10.12

na vā u̍ te ta̱nvā̍ ta̱nva1̱̍ṁ sam pa̍pṛcyām pā̱pam ā̍hu̱r yaḥ svasā̍raṁ ni̱gacchā̍t |
a̱nyena̱ mat pra̱muda̍ḥ kalpayasva̱ na te̱ bhrātā̍ subhage vaṣṭy e̱tat ||

I will not fold mine arms about thy body: they call it sin when one comes near his sister. Not me,– prepare thy pleasures with another: thy brother seeks not this from thee, O fair one.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
