AVŚ 4.38.5

सूर्यस्य रश्मीन् अनु याः सञ्चरन्ति मरीचीर् वा या अनुसञ्चरन्ति । यासाम् ऋषभो दूरतो वाजिनीवान्त् सद्यः सर्वान् लोकान् पर्येति रक्षन् । स न ऐतु होमम् इमं जुसाणो ऽन्तरिक्षेण सह वाजिनीवान् ॥५॥

sūryasya raśmīn anu yāḥ sañcaranti marīcīr vā yā anusañcaranti | yāsām ṛṣabho dūrato vājinīvānt sadyaḥ sarvān lokān paryeti rakṣan | sa na aitu homam imaṃ jusāṇo 'ntarikṣeṇa saha vājinīvān ||5||

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

They who (f.) go about (sam-car) after the rays of the sun, or who go about after [its] beams (márīci); of whom the mighty (? vājínīvant) bull from afar moves around (pari-i) at once all the worlds, defending—let him come unto us, enjoying this libation, together with the atmosphere, he the mighty one.
