AVŚ 5.1.9

अर्धम् अर्धेन पयसा पृणक्ष्य् अर्धेन शुष्म वर्धसे अमुर । अविं वृधाम शग्मियं सखायं वरुणं पुत्रम् अदित्या इषिरम् । कविशस्तान्य् अस्मै वपूंष्य् अवोचाम रोदसी सत्यवाचा ॥९॥

ardham ardhena payasā pṛṇakṣy ardhena śuṣma vardhase amura | aviṃ vṛdhāma śagmiyaṃ sakhāyaṃ varuṇaṃ putram adityā iṣiram | kaviśastāny asmai vapūṃṣy avocāma rodasī satyavācā ||9||

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

Half with half milk thou mixest (? pṛç); with half, O Asura (?), thou increasest [thy] vehemence (?). We have increased the helpful (çagmíya) companion, Varuṇa, lively (iṣirá) son of Aditi; poet-praised wondrous forms have we spoken for him—the (two) firmaments (ródasī) of true speech.
