4.34.1

bráhmāsya śīrṣáṃ br̥hád asya pr̥ṣṭháṃ vāmadevyám udáram odanásya |
chándāṃsi pakṣáu múkham asya satyáṃ viṣṭārī́ jātás tápaso'dhi yajñáḥ ||1||

The bráhman [is] its head, the bṛhát its back, the vāmadevyá the belly of the rice-mess; the meters [are] the (two) sides (wings?), truth its mouth; the viṣṭārín [is] a sacrifice born out of fervor (tápas).

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