5.18.4

nír vái kṣatráṃ náyati hanti várco 'gnír ivā́rabdho ví dunoti sárvam |
yó brāhmaṇáṃ mányate ánnam evá sá viṣásya pibati taimātásya ||4||

Verily it conducts away his authority, smites his splendor; like fire taken hold of it burns up all; he who thinks the Brahman to be food, he drinks of Timātan poison.

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