RV 5.40.8

ग्राव्णो ब्रह्मा युयुजानः सपर्यन् कीरिणा देवान् नमसोपशिक्षन् । अत्रिः सूर्यस्य दिवि चक्षुर् आधात् स्वर्भानोर् अप माया अघुक्षत् ॥

grāvṇo brahmā yuyujānaḥ saparyan kīriṇā devān namasopaśikṣan | atriḥ sūryasya divi cakṣur ādhāt svarbhānor apa māyā aghukṣat ||

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

The Brahman Atri, as he set the press-stones, serving the Gods with praise and adoration, Established in the heaven the eye of Surya, and caused Svarbhanu's magic arts to vanish.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
