Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895], at sacred-texts.com
1The heavenly Waters have I ranged: we have been sated with
their dew. p. a311
Here, Agni, bearing milk, am I. Endow me with the gift of
strength.
2Endow me with the gift of strength, with children, and a length-
ened life.
May the Gods mark this prayer of mine, may Indra with the
Rishis mark.
3Ye Waters, wash away this stain and whatsoever taint be here,
Each sinful wrong that I have done and every harmless curse
of mine.
4Thou art the wood, may I succeed! fuel, may I be glorified!
splendour, give splendour unto me.
