Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 18.4.28

AVŚ 18.4.28

द्रप्सश् चस्कन्द पृथिवीम् अनु द्याम् इमं च योनिम् अनु यश् च पूर्वः । समानं योनिम् अनु सम्चरन्तं द्रप्सम् जुहोम्य् अनु सप्त होत्राः ॥२८॥

drapsaś caskanda pṛthivīm anu dyām imaṃ ca yonim anu yaś ca pūrvaḥ | samānaṃ yonim anu samcarantaṃ drapsam juhomy anu sapta hotrāḥ ||28||

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

The drop leaped (skand) toward the earth, the sky (dív), toward both this lair (yóni) and the one that was of old; of the drop that goes about toward the same lair do I make oblation, after seven invocations (hótrā).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
