Atharva Veda
With marking of cattle's ears
vāyur enāḥ samākarat tvaṣṭā poṣāya dhriyatām indra ābhyo adhi bravad rudro bhūmne cikitsatu
With marking of cattle's ears
May Vāyu collect them; let Tvashṭar stay fast in order to [their] prosperity; may Indra bless them; let Rudra take care for [their] numbers.
lohitena svadhitinā mithunaṃ karṇayoḥ kṛdhi akartām aśvinā lakṣma tad astu prajayā bahu
With the red knife (svádhiti), make thou a pair (mithuná) on [their] two ears; the Açvins have made the mark; be that numerous by progeny.
yathā cakrur devāsurā yathā manuṣyā uta evā sahasrapoṣāya kṛṇutaṃ lakṣmāśvinā
As the gods and Asuras made [it], as human beings also, so, O Açvins, make ye the mark, in order to thousand-fold prosperity.
