Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.85.3

AVŚ 6.85.3

यथा वृत्र इमा आपस् तस्तम्भ विश्वधा यतीः । एवा ते अग्निना यक्ष्मं वैश्वानरेण वारये ॥३॥

yathā vṛtra imā āpas tastambha viśvadhā yatīḥ | evā te agninā yakṣmaṃ vaiśvānareṇa vāraye ||3||

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

As Vritra stopped (stambh) these waters [when] going in all directions, so, by means of Agni Vāiçvānara, do I ward off thy yákṣma.
