RV 9.71.2

प्र कृष्टिहेव शूष एति रोरुवद् असुर्यं वर्णं नि रिणीते अस्य तम् । जहाति वव्रिम् पितुर् एति निष्कृतम् उपप्रुतं कृणुते निर्णिजं तना ॥

pra kṛṣṭiheva śūṣa eti roruvad asuryaṃ varṇaṃ ni riṇīte asya tam | jahāti vavrim pitur eti niṣkṛtam upaprutaṃ kṛṇute nirṇijaṃ tanā ||

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

Strong, bellowing, he goes, like one who slays the folk; he lets this hue of Asuras flow off from him, Throws off his covering, seeks his father's meeting-place, and thus makes for himself the bright robe he assumes.
