Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 6.91

इमं यवम् अष्टायोगैः षद्योगेभिर् अचर्कृषुः । तेना ते तन्वो रपो ऽपाचीनम् अप व्यये ॥१॥

imaṃ yavam aṣṭāyogaiḥ ṣadyogebhir acarkṛṣuḥ | tenā te tanvo rapo 'pācīnam apa vyaye ||1||

This barley they plowed mightily with yokes of eight, with yokes of six; therewith I unwrap away the complaint (rápas) of thy body.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

न्यग् वातो वाति न्यक् तपति सूर्यः । नीचीनम् अघ्न्या दुहे न्यग् भवतु ते रपः ॥२॥

nyag vāto vāti nyak tapati sūryaḥ | nīcīnam aghnyā duhe nyag bhavatu te rapaḥ ||2||

Downward blows the wind; downward burns the sun; downward the inviolable [cow] milks; downward be thy complaint.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)

आप इद् वा उ भेषजीर् आपो अमीवचातनीः । आपो विश्वस्य भेषजीस् तास् ते कृण्वन्तु भेषजम् ॥३॥

āpa id vā u bheṣajīr āpo amīvacātanīḥ | āpo viśvasya bheṣajīs tās te kṛṇvantu bheṣajam ||3||

The waters verily are remedial; the waters are disease-expelling; the waters are remedial of everything; let them make remedy for thee.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
