AVŚ 8.4.22

उलूकयातुं शुशुलूकयातुं जहि श्वयातुम् उत कोकयातुम् । सुपर्णयातुम् उत गृध्रयातुं दृषदेव प्र मृण रक्ष इन्द्र ॥२२॥

ulūkayātuṃ śuśulūkayātuṃ jahi śvayātum uta kokayātum | suparṇayātum uta gṛdhrayātuṃ dṛṣadeva pra mṛṇa rakṣa indra ||22||

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

The owl-sorcerer, the owlet-(?)sorcerer smite thou, the dog-sorcerer and the cuckoo-sorcerer, the eagle-(? suparṇá)sorcerer and the vulture-sorcerer—do thou destroy (pra-mṛṇ) the demon, O Indra, as if with a mill-stone.
