pā̱pāsa̱ḥ santo̍ anṛ̱tā a̍sa̱tyā i̱dam pa̱dam a̍janatā gabhī̱ram ||

Like youthful women without brothers, straying, like dames who hate their lords, of evil conduct, They who are full of sin, untrue, unfaithful, they have engendered this abysmal station.

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