Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 4.8.1

AVŚ 4.8.1

भूतो भूतेषु पय आ दधाति स भूतानाम् अधिपतिर् बभूव । तस्य मृत्युश् चरति राजसूयं स राजा अनु मन्यताम् इदं ॥१॥

bhūto bhūteṣu paya ā dadhāti sa bhūtānām adhipatir babhūva | tasya mṛtyuś carati rājasūyaṃ sa rājā anu manyatām idaṃ ||1||

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

The being (bhūtá) sets milk in beings; he has become the overlord of beings; Death attends (car) the royal consecration (rājasū́ya) of him; let him, as king, approve this royalty.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
