20.133.1

vítatau kiraṇau dváu tā́vā pinaṣṭi pū́ruṣaḥ |
ná vai kumāri tát táthā yáthā kumāri mányase ||1||

Two rays of light are lengthened out, and the man gently touches them with the two beatings on the drum.
Maiden, it truly is not so as thou, O maiden, fanciest.
Two are thy mother's rays of light: the skin is guarded from the man.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1895, The Hymns of the Atharvaveda
