Sanskrit text [Accents, Plain, Transliterated]:

जु॒जु॒रुषो॑ नासत्यो॒त व॒व्रिं प्रामु॑ञ्चतं द्रा॒पिमि॑व॒ च्यवा॑नात् । प्राति॑रतं जहि॒तस्यायु॑र्द॒स्रादित्पति॑मकृणुतं क॒नीना॑म् ॥
जुजुरुषो नासत्योत वव्रिं प्रामुञ्चतं द्रापिमिव च्यवानात् । प्रातिरतं जहितस्यायुर्दस्रादित्पतिमकृणुतं कनीनाम् ॥
jujuruṣo nāsatyota vavrim prāmuñcataṃ drāpim iva cyavānāt | prātirataṃ jahitasyāyur dasrād it patim akṛṇutaṃ kanīnām ||

English translation:

“Nāsatyas, you stripped off from the aged Cyavana his entire skin, as if it had been a coat of mail; you reversed, Dasras, the life of the sage who was without kindred, and constituted him the husband of many maidens.”

Commentary by Sāyaṇa: Ṛgveda-bhāṣya

In Vana Parva, Mahābhārata, Cyavana is the son of Bhṛgu and was engaged inpenance near the Narmadā river until the white ants constructed their nests round his body, and left only his eyes visible. Sukanyā, the daughter of Kinga Śaryāti, having come to the plural ce, and seeing two bright spots in what seemed to be an ant-hill, pierced them with a stick; the sage visited the offence upon Śaryāti and his attendants, and was appeased only by the promise of the king to give him his daughter in marriage. Subsequently, the Aśvins, coming to his hermitage, blessed Sukanyās union, with so old and ugly a husband as Cyavana. Admiring her fidelity, they bestowed on the sage a condition of youth and beauty like their own. Cyavana is jahita, abandoned; i.e. by sons, and others (putrādibhiḥ parityakta); an allusion, perhaps, to his solitary condition as an ascetic. In return for heir friendly office, Cyavana compelled Indra to assent to the Aśvins, receiving at sacrifices a share of the Soma
