3.11.8

abhí tvā jarimā́hita gā́m ukṣáṇam iva rájjvā |
yás tvā mr̥tyúr abhyádhatta jā́yamānaṃ supāśáyā |
táṃ te satyásya hástābhyām úd amuñcad bŕ̥haspátiḥ ||8||

Old age hath curbed (abhi-dhā) thee, as it were a cow, an ox, with a rope; the death that curbed thee, when born, with easy fetter—that Brihaspati released for thee, with the (two) hands of truth.

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