Hymns of the Atharva-Veda (Bloomfield, SBE 42) · 1 passage
1. As the best of the plants thou art reputed, O herb: turn this man for me to-day into a eunuch that wears his hair dressed! 2. Turn him into a eunuch that wears his hair dressed, and into one that wears a hood! Then Indra with a pair of stones shall break his testicles both! 3. O eunuch, into a eunuch thee I have turned;O castrate, into a castrate thee I have turned; O weakling, into a weakling thee I have turned! A hood upon his head, and a hair-net do we place. 4. The two canals, fashioned by the gods, in which man's power rests, in thy testicles . . . . . . . . . . . . I break them with a club. 5. As women break reeds for a mattress with a stone, thus do I break thy member.
