pra kṛ̍ṣṭi̱heva̍ śū̱ṣa e̍ti̱ roru̍vad asu̱rya1̱̍ṁ varṇa̱ṁ ni ri̍ṇīte asya̱ tam |
jahā̍ti va̱vrim pi̱tur e̍ti niṣkṛ̱tam u̍pa̱pruta̍ṁ kṛṇute ni̱rṇija̱ṁ tanā̍ ||

Strong, bellowing, he goes, like one who slays the folk; he lets this hue of Asuras flow off from him, Throws off his covering, seeks his father's meeting-place, and thus makes for himself the bright robe he assumes.

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