AVŚ 3.18.1

इमां खनाम्य् ओषधिं वीरुधां बलवत्तमाम् । यया सपत्नीं बाधते यया संविन्दते पतिम् ॥१॥

imāṃ khanāmy oṣadhiṃ vīrudhāṃ balavattamām | yayā sapatnīṃ bādhate yayā saṃvindate patim ||1||

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

I dig this herb, of plants the strongest, with which one drives off (bādh) her rival; with which one wins completely (sam-vid) her husband.
