RV 10.85.28

नीललोहितम् भवति कृत्यासक्तिर् व्य् अज्यते । एधन्ते अस्या ज्ञातयः पतिर् बन्धेषु बध्यते ॥

nīlalohitam bhavati kṛtyāsaktir vy ajyate | edhante asyā jñātayaḥ patir bandheṣu badhyate ||

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

Her hue is blue and red: the fiend who clingeth close is driven off. Well thrive the kinsmen of this bride the husband is bound fast in bonds.
