Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 5.1.6

AVŚ 5.1.6

सप्त मर्यादाः कवयस् ततक्षुस् तासाम् इद् एकाम् अभ्य् अंहुरो गात् । आयोर् ह स्कम्भ उपमस्य नीडे पथां विसर्गे धरुणेषु तस्थौ ॥६॥

sapta maryādāḥ kavayas tatakṣus tāsām id ekām abhy aṃhuro gāt | āyor ha skambha upamasya nīḍe pathāṃ visarge dharuṇeṣu tasthau ||6||

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

Seven bourns (maryā́dā) did the poets fashion; unto one of these verily went one distressed; in the nest of the nearest (upamá) community (? āyú) stood the pillar (skambhá), at the release (visargá) of the roads, in the supports (dharúṇa).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
