Book 6: Hymn 18: A charm to banish jealousy

Hymns of the Atharva Veda (Griffith) ยท 1 passage

1

1The first approach of Jealousy, and that which followeth the first, The pain, the fire that burns within thy heart we quench and drive away. 2Even as the earth is dead to sense, yea, more unconscious than the dead, Even as a corpse's spirit is the spirit of the jealous man. 3The thought that harbours in thy heart, the fluttering doubt that dwells therein. Yea, all thy jealousy, like heat born of the dance, I banish thence.
