अपागूहन्न् अमृतां मर्त्येभ्यः कृत्वा सवर्णाम् अदधुर् विवस्वते । उताश्विनाव् अभरद् यत् तद् आसीद् अजहाद् उ द्वा मिथुना सरण्यूः ॥३३॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

From mortal men they hid the Immortal Lady, made one like her and gave her to Vivasvan. Saranyu brought to him the Asvin brothers, and then deserted both twinned pairs of children.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 10.17.2; the wording of this text may differ in places.
