1.16.1

येऽमावास्यां रात्रिमुदस्थुर्व्राजमत्त्रिणः ।
अग्निस्तुरीयो यातुहा सो अस्मभ्यमधि ब्रवत् ॥ १.१६.१ ॥

Whoever, the man-eating Atrins, rose on the new-moon night toward the pen, of them let the fourth Agni, slayer of sorcerers, tell us.

सीसायाध्याह वरुणः सीसायाग्निरुपावति ।
सीसं म इन्द्रः प्रायच्छत्तदङ्ग यातुचातनम् ॥ १.१६.२ ॥

Varuṇa speaks over the lead, Agni comes near with lead. Indra gave me the lead; that, friend, is what destroys sorcery.

इदं विष्कन्धं सहत इदं बाधते अत्त्रिणः ।
अनेन विश्वा ससहे या जातानि पिशाच्याः ॥ १.१६.३ ॥

This overcomes the weakener, this drives away the man-eating Atrins. By this he has conquered all that was born of the piśācīs.

यदि नो गां हंसि यद्यश्वं यदि पूरुषम् ।
तं त्वा सीसेन विध्यामो यथा नोऽसो अवीरहा ॥ १.१६.४ ॥

If you harm our cow, or horse, or man, we pierce you with lead, so that you may not be a slayer of heroes for us.
