AVŚ 8.3.6

यज्ञैर् इषूः संनममानो अग्ने इवाचा शल्यां अशनिभिर् दिहानः । ताभिर् विध्य हृदये यातुधानान् प्रतीचो बाहून् प्रति भङ्ग्ध्य् एषाम् ॥६॥

yajñair iṣūḥ saṃnamamāno agne ivācā śalyāṃ aśanibhir dihānaḥ | tābhir vidhya hṛdaye yātudhānān pratīco bāhūn prati bhaṅgdhy eṣām ||6||

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

By sacrifices, O Agni, straightening (sam-nam) thine arrows, by speech smearing their tips with thunderbolts—with them pierce in the heart the sorcerers; break back (pratīcás) their arms.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
