अग्रम् एष्य् ओषधीनां ज्योतिषेवाभिदीपयन् । उत त्रातासि पाकस्याथो हन्तासि रक्षसः ॥३॥

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

Thou goest to the head (ágra) of the herbs, causing to shine (dīp) upon [us] as it were with light; also rescuer art thou of the simple (pā́ka), likewise slayer art thou of the demoniac.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
