Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895], at sacred-texts.com


HYMN XXI

A funeral stanza

1With prayer come all together to the Lord of Heaven: he is the
   peerless one, far-reaching, guest of men.
  He, God of ancient time, hath gained a recent thrall; to him
   alone is turned the path which all must tread.
