Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 2.5.6

AVŚ 2.5.6

अहन्न् अहिं पर्वते शिश्रियाणं त्वष्टास्मै वज्रं स्वर्यं ततक्ष । वाश्रा इव धेनवः स्यन्दमाना अञ्जः समुद्रम् अव जग्मुर् आपः ॥६॥

ahann ahiṃ parvate śiśriyāṇaṃ tvaṣṭāsmai vajraṃ svaryaṃ tatakṣa | vāśrā iva dhenavaḥ syandamānā añjaḥ samudram ava jagmur āpaḥ ||6||

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

He slew the dragon that had resorted (çri) to the mountain; Tvashṭar fashioned for him the whizzing (?) thunderbolt; like lowing kine, flowing (syand), at once the waters went down to the ocean.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
