Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 18.1.7

AVŚ 18.1.7

को अस्य वेद प्रथमस्याह्नः क ईं ददर्श क इह प्र वोचत् । बृहन् मित्रस्य वरुणस्य धाम कद् उ ब्रव आहनो वीच्या नॄन् ॥७॥

ko asya veda prathamasyāhnaḥ ka īṃ dadarśa ka iha pra vocat | bṛhan mitrasya varuṇasya dhāma kad u brava āhano vīcyā nṝn ||7||

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

Who knows of that first day? who saw it? who shall proclaim it here? Great is the ordinance (dhā́man) of Mitra, of Varuṇa; why, O lustful one, wilt thou speak to men with deceit (? vī́ci)?

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
