Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.34.8

AVŚ 4.34.8

इमम् ओदनं नि दधे ब्राह्मणेषु विष्टारिणं लोकजितं स्वर्गम् । स मे मा क्षेष्ट स्वधया पिन्वमानो विश्वरूपा धेनुः कामदुघा मे अस्तु ॥८॥

imam odanaṃ ni dadhe brāhmaṇeṣu viṣṭāriṇaṃ lokajitaṃ svargam | sa me mā kṣeṣṭa svadhayā pinvamāno viśvarūpā dhenuḥ kāmadughā me astu ||8||

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

This rice-mess I deposit in the Brāhmans, the viṣṭārín, world-conquering, heaven-going (svargá); let it not be destroyed (kṣi) for me, swelling with svadhā́; be it a cow of all forms, milking my desire.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
