anác chaye turágātu jīvám éjad dhruváṃ mádhya ā́ pastyā̀nām |
jīvó mr̥tásya carati svadhā́bhir ámartyo mártyenā sáyoniḥ ||8||

Breathing lies the swift moving thing, living, stirring, fixed, in the midst of the abodes (pastyā̀); the living one moves at the will (? svadhā́bhis) of the dead one; the immortal one [is] of like source with the mortal.

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