Atharvaveda Saṃhitā (Śaunaka) 9.10.2

AVŚ 9.10.2

गायत्रेण प्रति मिमीते अर्कम् अर्केण साम त्रैष्टुभेन वाकम् । वाकेन वाकं द्विपदा चतुष्पदाक्षरेण मिमते सप्त वाणीः ॥२॥

gāyatreṇa prati mimīte arkam arkeṇa sāma traiṣṭubhena vākam | vākena vākaṃ dvipadā catuṣpadākṣareṇa mimate sapta vāṇīḥ ||2||

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

By the gāyatrī́ -verse he measures off the song (arká), by the song the chant (sā́man), by the triṣṭúbh -vevse the hymn (vāká), by the hymn of two feet [or] of four feet the hymn; by the syllable they measure the seven tunes (vā́ṇi).

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
