Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 10.2.30

AVŚ 10.2.30

न वै तम् चक्षुर् जहाति न प्राणो जरसः पुरा । पुरं यो ब्रह्मणो वेद यस्याः पुरुष उच्यते ॥३०॥

na vai tam cakṣur jahāti na prāṇo jarasaḥ purā | puraṃ yo brahmaṇo veda yasyāḥ puruṣa ucyate ||30||

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

Him verily sight doth not desert, nor breath, before old age, who knoweth the bráhman's stronghold (púr), from which man (púruṣa) is [so] called.
