19.42.2

bráhma srúco ghr̥távatīr bráhmaṇā védir úddhitā |
bráhma yajñásya táttvaṃ ca r̥tvíjo yé haviṣkŕ̥taḥ |
śamitā́ya svā́hā ||2||

The bráhman is the sacrificial spoons filled with ghee; by the bráhman is the sacrificial hearth set up (ud-dhā) and the bráhman is the essence (tattvá) of the sacrifice—the priests that are oblation-makers: ⌊to the slaughtered [victim] hail!⌋

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