Hymns of the Atharva Veda (Griffith) · 1 passage
1I am the:centre of riches. Fain would I be the centre of mine equals. 2Pleasant art thou to sit by one, a mother: immortal among mortals. 3Let not inward breath desert me; let not outward breath depart and leave me. 4Let Sūrya protect me from Day, Agni from Earth, Vāyu from Firmament, Yama from men, Sarasvatī from dwellers on the earth. 5Let not outward and inward breath fail me. Be not thou destruc- tive among the men. 6Propitious to-day be dawns and evenings. May I drink water with all my people safe around me. 7Mighty are ye, domestic creatures. May Mitra-Varuna stand beside me. May Agni give me inward and outward breath. May,he give me ability.
