10.129.1

nāsa̍d āsī̱n no sad ā̍sīt ta̱dānī̱ṁ nāsī̱d rajo̱ no vyo̍mā pa̱ro yat |
kim āva̍rīva̱ḥ kuha̱ kasya̱ śarma̱nn ambha̱ḥ kim ā̍sī̱d gaha̍naṁ gabhī̱ram ||

THEN was not non-existent nor existent: there was no realm of air, no sky beyond it. What covered in, and where? and what gave shelter? Was water there, unfathomed depth of water?

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