RV 10.72.9

सप्तभिः पुत्रैर् अदितिर् उप प्रैत् पूर्व्यं युगम् । प्रजायै मृत्यवे त्वत् पुनर् मार्ताण्डम् आभरत् ॥

saptabhiḥ putrair aditir upa prait pūrvyaṃ yugam | prajāyai mṛtyave tvat punar mārtāṇḍam ābharat ||

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

So with her Seven Sons Aditi went forth to meet the earlier age. She brought Martanda thitherward to spring to life and die again.
