Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 7.1.1

AVŚ 7.1.1

धीती वा ये अनयन् वाचो अग्रं मनसा वा ये ऽवदन्न् ऋतानि । तृतीयेन ब्रह्मणा वावृधानास् तुरीयेणामन्वत नाम धेनोः ॥१॥

dhītī vā ye anayan vāco agraṃ manasā vā ye 'vadann ṛtāni | tṛtīyena brahmaṇā vāvṛdhānās turīyeṇāmanvata nāma dhenoḥ ||1||

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

They either who by meditation led the beginning (ágra) of speech, or who by mind spoke righteous things (ṛtá)—they, increasing with the third incantation (bráhman), perceived (man) with the fourth the name of the milch cow.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
