Atharva Veda 3.9

karśaphasya viśaphasya dyauḥ pitā pṛthivī mātā yathābhicakra devās tathāpa kṛṇutā punaḥ

Against viṣkandha and other evils

Of the karçápha, of the viçaphá, heaven [is] father, earth mother: as, O gods, ye have inflicted (abhi-kṛ), so do ye remove (apa-kṛ) again.

aśreṣmāṇo adhārayan tathā tan manunā kṛtam kṛṇomi vadhri viṣkandhaṃ muṣkābarho gavām iva

Without claspers they held fast (dhāraya); that was so done by Manu; I make the víṣkandha impotent, like a castrater of bulls.

piśaṅge sūtre khṛgalaṃ tad ā badhnanti vedhasaḥ śravasyuṃ śuṣmaṃ kābavaṃ vadhriṃ kṛṇvantu bandhuraḥ

On a reddish string a khṛ́gala—that the pious (vedhás) bind on; let the binders (?) make impotent the flowing (?), puffing (?) kābavá.

yenā śravasyavaś caratha devā ivāsuramāyayā śunāṃ kapir iva dūṣaṇo bandhurā kābavasya ca

Wherewith, O flowing ones, ye go about (car), like gods with Asura-magic (-māyā), like the ape, spoiler of dogs, and with the binder (?) of the kābavá.

duṣṭyai hi tvā bhatsyāmi dūṣayiṣyāmi kābavam ud āśavo rathā iva śapathebhiḥ sariṣyatha

Since I shall bind thee [on] for spoiling, I shall spoil the kābavá; ye shall go up with curses, like swift chariots.

This verse is not included in this edition.

A hundred and one víṣkandhas [are] distributed over the earth; thee have they first taken up, of them the víṣkandha-spoiling amulet.
