Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 2.31.3

AVŚ 2.31.3

अल्गण्डून् हन्मि महता वधेन दूना अदूना अरसा अभूवन् । शिष्टान् अशिष्टान् नि तिरामि वाचा यथा क्रिमीणां नकिर् उछिषातै ॥३॥

algaṇḍūn hanmi mahatā vadhena dūnā adūnā arasā abhūvan | śiṣṭān aśiṣṭān ni tirāmi vācā yathā krimīṇāṃ nakir uchiṣātai ||3||

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

I smite the algáṇḍus with a great deadly weapon; burnt [or] unburnt, they have become sapless; those left [or] not left I draw down by my spell (vā́c), that no one of the worms be left.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
