Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 5.1.4

AVŚ 5.1.4

प्र यद् एते प्रतरं पूर्व्यं गुः सदःसद आतिष्ठन्तो अजुर्यम् । कविः शुषस्य मातरा रिहाणे जाम्यै धुर्यं पतिम् एरयेथाम् ॥४॥

pra yad ete prataraṃ pūrvyaṃ guḥ sadaḥsada ātiṣṭhanto ajuryam | kaviḥ śuṣasya mātarā rihāṇe jāmyai dhuryaṃ patim erayethām ||4||

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

When these formerly went further forth, approaching each unfading seat—the poet of the dry (? çuṣá), the two licking mothers—do ye (two) send for the sister (jāmí) a capable (dhúrya) spouse.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
