12.3.20

tráyo lokā́ḥ sáṃmitā brā́hmaṇena dyáur evā́sáu pr̥thivy àntárikṣam |
aṃśū́n gr̥bhītvā́nvā́rabhethām ā́ pyāyantāṃ púnar ā́ yantu śū́rpam ||20||

The three worlds are commensurate with the brā́hmaṇa: yon heaven, namely, earth, atmosphere; having seized the [soma-] stalks, take ye (du.) hold after; let them swell up (ā-pyā); let them come again to the sieve.

William Dwight Whitney 1905, Atharva-Veda Saṃhitā (HOS 7–8)
