Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 18.4.55

AVŚ 18.4.55

यथा यमाय हर्म्यम् अवपन् पञ्च मानवाः । एवा वपामि हर्म्यं यथा मे भूरयो ऽसत ॥५५॥

yathā yamāya harmyam avapan pañca mānavāḥ | evā vapāmi harmyaṃ yathā me bhūrayo 'sata ||55||

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

As the five clans (mānavá) scattered (vap) a dwelling (harmyá) for Yama, so do I scatter a dwelling, that there may be many of me (?).
