AVŚ 8.3.18

सनाद् अग्ने मृणसि यातुधानान् न त्वा रक्षांसि पृतनासु जिग्युः । सहमूरान् अनु दह क्रव्यादो मा ते हेत्या मुक्षत दैव्यायाः ॥१८॥

sanād agne mṛṇasi yātudhānān na tvā rakṣāṃsi pṛtanāsu jigyuḥ | sahamūrān anu daha kravyādo mā te hetyā mukṣata daivyāyāḥ ||18||

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

From of old, O Agni, thou killest the sorcerers; the demons have not conquered thee in fights; burn up the flesh-eaters together with their dupes (? mūrá); let them not be freed from thy heavenly missile.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
