Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 10.8.15

AVŚ 10.8.15

दूरे पूर्णेन वसति दूर ऊनेन हीयते । महद् यक्षं भुवनस्य मध्ये तस्मै बलिं राष्ट्रभृतो भरन्ति ॥१५॥

dūre pūrṇena vasati dūra ūnena hīyate | mahad yakṣaṃ bhuvanasya madhye tasmai baliṃ rāṣṭrabhṛto bharanti ||15||

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

In the distance it dwells with the full one, in the distance it is abandoned by the deficient one—the great monster (yakṣá) in the midst of existence; to it the kingdom-bearers bear tribute.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
