Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 5.7.8

AVŚ 5.7.8

उत नग्ना बोभुवती स्वप्नया सचसे जनम् । अराते चित्तं वीर्त्सन्त्य् आकूतिं पुरुषस्य च ॥८॥

uta nagnā bobhuvatī svapnayā sacase janam | arāte cittaṃ vīrtsanty ākūtiṃ puruṣasya ca ||8||

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

Likewise, greatly making thyself naked, thou fastenest on (sac) a person in dreams, O niggard, baffling the plan and design of a man (púruṣa).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
