Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895], at sacred-texts.com
1We bend your minds in union, bend in harmony your hopes and
plans:
You there, who turn to sundered ways, we bend and bow in
unison.
2I with my spirit make your spirits captive: these with their
thoughts follow my thought and wishes.
I make your hearts submissive to mine order closely attending
go where I precede you.
3I have invoked both Heaven and Earth, invoked divine
Sarasvati,
Indra and Agni have I called: Sarasvati, so may we thrive!
