Within the flame, pray, make ye this sorcerer-destroying libation with ghee; from afar, O Agni, do thou burn against the demons; mayest thou not be hot toward our houses.

vīrúd vo viśvátovīryā yaména sám ajīgamat ||2||

Rudra hath crushed (çṛ) your necks, O piçācás; let him crush in (api-çṛ) your ribs, O sorcerers; the plant of universal power hath made you go to Yama.

6.32.3

ábhayaṃ mitrāvaruṇāv ihā́stu no 'rcíṣāttríṇo nudataṃ pratī́caḥ |
mā́ jñātā́raṃ mā́ pratiṣṭhā́ṃ vidanta mithó vighnānā́ úpa yantu mr̥tyúm ||3||

Fearlessness, O Mitra-and-Varuṇa, be ours here; drive ye backward the devourers with your gleam; let them not find a knower, nor a foundation (pratiṣṭhā́); mutually destroying one another let them go unto death.

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