Atharva Veda
For protection to cattle
anaḍudbhyas tvaṃ prathamaṃ dhenubhyas tvam arundhati adhenave vayase śarma yaccha catuṣpade
For protection to cattle
To the draft-oxen ⌊do thou⌋ first, to the milch kine ⌊do thou⌋, O arundhatī́, to the non-milch cow, in order to vigor (váyas), to four-footed creatures do thou yield protection.
śarma yacchatv oṣadhiḥ saha devīr arundhatī karat payasvantaṃ goṣṭham ayakṣmāṁ uta pūruṣān
Let the herb, the arundhatī́, allied with the gods (?), yield protection; may it make the cow-stall rich in milk, and the men (púruṣa) free from disease (yákṣma).
viśvarūpāṃ subhagām acchāvadāmi jīvalām sā no rudrasyāstāṃ hetiṃ dūraṃ nayatu gobhyaḥ
I appeal to the all-formed, well-portioned, vivifying one; let it conduct the hurled missile of Rudra far away from our kine.
