RV 10.109.2

सोमो राजा प्रथमो ब्रह्मजायाम् पुनः प्रायच्छद् अहृणीयमानः । अन्वर्तिता वरुणो मित्र आसीद् अग्निर् होता हस्तगृह्या निनाय ॥

somo rājā prathamo brahmajāyām punaḥ prāyacchad ahṛṇīyamānaḥ | anvartitā varuṇo mitra āsīd agnir hotā hastagṛhyā nināya ||

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

King Soma first of all, without reluctance, made restitution of the Brahman's consort. Mitra and Varuna were the inviters: Agni as Hota; took her hand and led her.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
