AVŚ 8.9.18

सप्त होमाः समिधो ह सप्त मधूनि सप्त ऋतवो ह सप्त । सप्ताज्यानि परि भूतम् आयन् ताः सप्तगृध्रा इति शुश्रुमा वयम् ॥१८॥

sapta homāḥ samidho ha sapta madhūni sapta ṛtavo ha sapta | saptājyāni pari bhūtam āyan tāḥ saptagṛdhrā iti śuśrumā vayam ||18||

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

Seven [are] the offerings (hóma), the fuels seven, the sweet things (mádhu, n.) seven, the seasons seven; seven sacrificial butters (ā́jya) went about the existent thing (bhūtá); those (f.) are seven-vultured, so have we heard.
