Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 8.7.15

AVŚ 8.7.15

सिंहस्येव स्तनथोः सं विजन्ते ऽग्नेर् इव विजन्ते आभृताभ्यः । गवां यक्ष्मः पुरुषाणां वीरुद्भिर् अतिनुत्तो नाव्या एतु स्रोत्याः ॥१५॥

siṃhasyeva stanathoḥ saṃ vijante 'gner iva vijante ābhṛtābhyaḥ | gavāṃ yakṣmaḥ puruṣāṇāṃ vīrudbhir atinutto nāvyā etu srotyāḥ ||15||

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

As at the roaring of a lion do they quake; as at fire do they tremble at [the herbs when] brought; let the yákṣma of kine, of men, go driven by the plants beyond navigable streams.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
