Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 10.8.8

AVŚ 10.8.8

पञ्चवाही वहत्यग्रम् एषां प्रष्टयो युक्ता अनुसंवहन्ति । अयातम् अस्य ददृशे न यातं परं नेदीयो ऽवरं दवीयः ॥८॥

pañcavāhī vahatyagram eṣāṃ praṣṭayo yuktā anusaṃvahanti | ayātam asya dadṛśe na yātaṃ paraṃ nedīyo 'varaṃ davīyaḥ ||8||

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

One carrying five carries the summit (ágra) of them; side-horses, harnessed, carry also along; what is not gone of it was seen, not what is gone; the higher thing [is] closer, the lower more distant.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
