Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
What was there to be blamed in thee, O Visnu, when thou declaredst, I am Sipivista? Hide not this form from us, nor keep it secret, since thou didst wear another shape in battle.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)This is the translator's rendering of the same verse where it occurs at RV 7.100.6; the wording of this text may differ in places.
