RV 7.8.2

अयम् उ ष्य सुमहां अवेदि होता मन्द्रो मनुषो यह्वो अग्निः । वि भा अकः ससृजानः पृथिव्यां कृष्णपविर् ओषधीभिर् ववक्षे ॥

ayam u ṣya sumahāṃ avedi hotā mandro manuṣo yahvo agniḥ | vi bhā akaḥ sasṛjānaḥ pṛthivyāṃ kṛṣṇapavir oṣadhībhir vavakṣe ||

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

Yea, he hath been acknowledged as most mighty, the joyous Priest of men, the youthful Agni. He, spreading o'er the earth, made light around him, and grew among the plants with blackened fellies..
