Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 1.2.4

AVŚ 1.2.4

यथा द्यां च पृथिवीं चान्तस् तिष्ठति तेजनम् । एवा रोगं चास्रावं चान्तस् तिष्ठतु मुञ्ज इत् ॥४॥

yathā dyāṃ ca pṛthivīṃ cāntas tiṣṭhati tejanam | evā rogaṃ cāsrāvaṃ cāntas tiṣṭhatu muñja it ||4||

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

As between both heaven and earth stands the bamboo (? téjana), so let the reed-stalk (múñja) stand between both the disease and the flux (āsrāvá).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
