AVŚ 1.28.4

पुत्रम् अत्तु यातुधानीः स्वसारम् उत नप्त्यम् । अधा मिथो विकेश्यो वि घ्नतां यातुधान्यो वि तृह्यन्ताम् अराय्यः ॥४॥

putram attu yātudhānīḥ svasāram uta naptyam | adhā mitho vikeśyo vi ghnatāṃ yātudhānyo vi tṛhyantām arāyyaḥ ||4||

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

Let the sorceress eat [her own] son, sister, and daughter (? naptī́); then let the horrid-haired sorceresses mutually destroy (vi-han) one another; let the hags (arāyī́) be shattered asunder.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
