10.18.4

i̱maṁ jī̱vebhya̍ḥ pari̱dhiṁ da̍dhāmi̱ maiṣā̱ṁ nu gā̱d apa̍ro̱ artha̍m e̱tam |
śa̱taṁ jī̍vantu śa̱rada̍ḥ purū̱cīr a̱ntar mṛ̱tyuṁ da̍dhatā̱m parva̍tena ||

Here I erect this rampart for the living; let none of these, none other, reach this limit. May they survive a hundred lengthened autumns, and may they bury Death beneath this mountain.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1889, The Hymns of the Rigveda
