20.16.8

áśnā́pinaddhaṃ mádhu páry apaśyan mátsyaṃ ná dīná udáni kṣiyántam |
níṣ ṭáj jabhāra camasáṃ ná vr̥kṣā́d bŕ̥haspátir viravéṇā vikŕ̥tya ||8||

He looked around on rock-imprisoned sweetness as one who eyes a fish in scanty water. Brihaspati, cleaving through with varied clamour, brought it forth like a bowl from out the timber.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1895, The Hymns of the Atharvaveda
