The actual battle hymn³ does not contain the word, and the passages in which it is found may reasonably be considered late.⁴ - [Previous: v1.c3.s18.288](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s18.288) - [Next: v1.c3.s18.290](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s18.290) - [Up: v1.c3.s18](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s18) ## Linked texts (2) - [Ṛgvedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.rg) — Sanskrit - [Atharvavedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.atharva) — Atharvan & Aṅgiras, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s18.289](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s18.289) · Pramāṇa
