Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 10.4.8

AVŚ 10.4.8

संयतं न वि ष्परद् व्यात्तं न सं यमत् । अस्मिन् क्षेत्रे द्वाव् अही स्त्री च पुमांश् च ताव् उभाव् अरसा ॥८॥

saṃyataṃ na vi ṣparad vyāttaṃ na saṃ yamat | asmin kṣetre dvāv ahī strī ca pumāṃś ca tāv ubhāv arasā ||8||

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

What is shut together may it not open; what is opened may it not shut together; in this field [are] two snakes, both a female and a male; those [are] both sapless.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
