# Atharva-Veda Samhita/Book VI/Hymn 5

5. For some one's exaltation.
[Atharvan.—āindrāgnam. ānuṣṭubham: 2. bhurij.]
Found also in Pāipp. xix., and in VS. (xvii. 50-52) TS. (iv. 6. 3$^1$), MS. (ii. 10. 4). Used in Kāuç. (4. 9) in the parvan sacrifice, with an oblation to Agni; and again (59. 7), with vi. 6 and vii. 91, by one desiring a village; and for success in traffic, see under vi. 1. In Vāit. (29. 15) the hymn accompanies the laying on of fuel in the agnicayana, and vs. 2, in the parvan sacrifice (2. 14; 3. 3), two offerings to Indra; for the use in Vāit. 16. 9, see under vi. 3. The comm. further points out vs. 2 as addressed to Indra in the Nakṣ. K. 14.
Translated: Ludwig, p. 431; Florenz, 254 or 6; Griffith, i. 247.
1. Lead him up higher, O Agni, [thou] to whom oblations of ghee are made; unite him with splendor, and make him abundant with progeny.
VS.TS. have in a the later form uttarā́m. In b, ghṛténa presents the rare case of an instrumental dependent on a vocative, and ought, like a genitive in the like construction, to be unaccented; it is so in all the three Yajus texts. Ppp. reads ghṛtebhir āhutaḥ. VS.TS. exchange 1 c and 2 c; and TS. has dhánena ca for bahúṁ kṛdhi at the end. Ppp. has, for d, devānāṁ bhāgadhā asat (cf. TS. 2 d). This first verse occurs also in Āp. vi. 24. 8, which has, for a, ud asmāṅ uttarān naya, agrees with VS. and TS. in c, and reads bahūn in d.
2. O Indra, put this man far forward; may he be controler of his fellows; unite him with abundance of wealth; conduct him unto life (jīvā́tu), unto old age.
In a, VS.TS. have again pratarā́m; VS. MS. have naya for kṛdhi; for c (as already noted), VS.TS. have our 1 c; for d, MS. has devébhyo bhāgadā́ asat, VS. and TS. nearly the same, VS. substituting devā́nām, and TS. -dhā́; Ppp. has, for d, our 1 d. The meter of d might be rectified by abbreviating jīvā́tave to -tvāi (a form found in MS.ÇB. and Āp.), or by emending it to jīvā́tum.
3. In whose house we make oblation, him, O Agni, do thou increase; him may Soma bless, and this Brahmaṇaspati.
The three Yajus texts have, in a, kurmás for kṛṇmás, and VS.MS. (with Ppp.) put havís after gṛhé. In c, all three have devā́ ádhi bravan (but MS. bruvan). The last half-verse occurs below, as 87. 3 c, d (corresponding to RV. x. 173. 3 etc.).

50. Against petty destroyers of grain.
[Atharvan (abhayakāmaḥ).—āçvinam. 1. virāḍ jagatī; 2, 3. pathyāpan̄kti.]
Only the second verse is found in Pāipp., in book xix.; and no occurrence of any part of the hymn has been noted elsewhere. Its intent is obvious. In Kāuç. (51. 17) the hymn is applied in a rite for ridding the fields of danger from mice and other pests; one goes about the field scratching lead with iron (? the comm. reads ayaḥsīsaṁ gharṣan); and it is reckoned (note to 16. 8) to the abhaya gaṇa.
Translated: Ludwig, p. 499; Florenz, 312 or 64; Griffith, i. 272; Bloomfield, 142, 485.
1. Smite, O Açvins, the borer, the samān̄ká, the rat; split their head; crush in their ribs; lest they eat the barley, shut up their mouth; then make fearlessness for the grain.
All the mss. accent áçvinā, as if the word began the second pāda instead of ending the first, and SPP. follows them; our text emends to açv-. In b, SPP. reads, with most of the mss., chintám, which is better, being prescribed by Prāt. ii. 20. The comm. reads at the beginning of c yuvāṁ ned adāt. Tarda perhaps denotes a special kind of ākhu or rat. The comm. regards saman̄ka as adj. to ākhum and = samañcanam bilaṁ sampraviçya gacchantam.
2. Hey, borer! hey, locust! hey, grinder, upakvasa! as a priest (brahman) an unfinished oblation, not eating this barley, go up away, doing no harm.
Ppp's version is quite corrupt: tarda heṁ patan̄ga heṁ jabhyā upakvasaḥ anadanta idaṁ dhānya hiṅsanto ’podita. The comm. reads apakvasas in b (explaining it by adagdhāḥ santaḥ), and brahma (instead of brahmā) in c, and anudantas at beginning of d. The first two pādas are deficient by a syllable each. ⌊I think Roth intended hi twice, not heṁ.⌋
3. O lord of borers, lord of vághā's! with arid jaws do ye (pl.) listen to me: what devourers (vyadvará) there are of the forest, and whatever devourers ye are, all them do we grind up.
In vyadvarā́s, some of our mss. blunder the dv into ddh or dhv, even ddhv; but most of them, with all SPP's authorities save one, have vyadvarā́s, which is accordingly, doubtless with reason, admitted by SPP. into his text as the true reading, and our vyadhv- is to be corrected accordingly. ⌊For vy-advará, vy-ádvarī, see note to iii. 28. 2. But at HGS. ii. 16. 5 we have vyadhvara with maçaka; cf. note to ii. 31. 4.⌋ Some mss. appear to read vaṭyāpate in a, but SPP. gives vaghā- as supported by all his authorities, and the comm. also has it, giving it a fictitious etymology from ava-han; he explains it by patan̄gādi. Pāda b is redundant, unless we contract -bhā́ ”çṛṇota.
# Atharva-Veda Samhita/Book VI/Hymn 56

56. For protection from serpents.
[Çaṁtāti.—1. vāiçvadevī, uṣṇiggarbhā pathyāpan̄kti; 2, 3. rāudryāu: 2. anuṣṭubh; 3. nicṛt.]
Found also in Pāipp. xix. (in the verse-order 1, 3, 2). Used by Kāuç. (50. 17), in a rite for welfare, with iii. 26, 27 and xii. 1. 46, against serpents, scorpions, etc.; and again (139. 8), with various other verses and hymns, in the ceremony for commencing Vedic study. In Vāit. (29. 10), in the agnicayana, it and other passages accompany oblations to Rudra.
Translated: Aufrecht, ZDMG. xxv. 235 (1871); Ludwig, p. 502; Grill, 5, 162; Griffith, i. 276; Bloomfield, 151, 487.—See also the introduction to iii. 26.
1. Let not the snake, O gods, slay us with our offspring, with our men (púruṣa); what is shut together may it not unclose; what is open may it not shut together: homage to the god-people.
Pādas c and d are found again below as x. 4. 8 a, b. ⌊Read sáṁyataṁ yán ná ví ṣparad, viā́ttam yán ná etc.?⌋ Ppp. reads in b sahapāuruṣān, and omits the concluding pāda. The comm. has vi sphurat in c; he understands the 'open' and 'shut' of the snake's mouth, doubtless correctly. MB. (ii. 1. 5) has a parallel phrase: saṁhatam mā vivadhir vihatam mā ’bhisaṁvadhīḥ.
2. Homage be to the black [snake], homage to the cross-lined, homage to the brown constrictor; homage to the god-people.
Ppp. reads haye for astu in a. The comm. explains svaja 'constrictor' as "self-born" ⌊and Aufrecht as the "natural" color, that is, "green "⌋.
3. I smite thy teeth together with tooth, thy (two) jaws together with jaw, thy tongue together with tongue, thy mouth, O snake, together with mouth.
Ppp. reads at the beginning saṁ te dadāmi dadbhir datas, omits u in b, and ends with āsnāhasyam. The comm. understands "thy lower teeth with thine upper tooth," and so in the other cases: but this is very unacceptable; and more probably the tooth, jaw, etc. are said of some object or instrument used in the incantation.
# Atharva-Veda Samhita/Book VI/Hymn 49

49. To Agni etc.
[Gārgya.—āgneyam. 1. anuṣṭubh; 2-3. jagatī (3. virāj).]
Found also in Pāipp. xix. Further, in K. (xxxv. 14-15), and the first two verses in ĀpÇS. xiv. 29. 3, the first in TA. (vi. 10. 1) and JB. (ii. 218), the last in RV. (x. 94. 5); they seem to be three unconnected verses. Their very obscure and questionable content is explained by the comm. as accompanying and referring to the fire that consumes a deceased teacher; the hymn is to be spoken by a pupil: this the Kāuçika prescribes (46. 14). In ĀpÇS., the two verses are two out of six with which a consecrated person is to accompany six oblations offered in case he spills his seed. Parts of the hymn relate to the action of the pressing stones in crushing the stalks of the soma-plant.
Translated: Ludwig, p. 432; Florenz, 310 or 62; Griffith, i. 272.
​1. Surely no mortal, O Agni, hath attained the cruelty of thy self (tanū́). The ape gnaws (bhas) the shaft (téjana), as a cow her own after-birth.
That is, perhaps (a) hath succeeded in inflicting a wound on thee. Ppp. differs only in reading martyam at end of a. For tanvas in a, TA.Āp. have the equivalent tanúvāi; for ānáṅça in b, TA. cakā́ra, Āp. ānāça; for svám in c, TA. púnar. The comm. has bibhasti in c (also 2 d ⌊which see⌋).
2. Like a ram, thou art bent both together and wide apart, when in the upper wood [the upper] and the lower stone devour; exciting (ard) head with head, breast (ápsas) with breast, he gnaws the soma-stalks (aṅçu) with green mouths.
In a, 'ram' (meṣá) perhaps means something made of ram's wool or skin; or the action of the stones is compared to that of a ram, butting and drawing back. K. (of which I happen to have the readings in this verse) gives meṣa iva yad upa ca vi ca carvati, and Āp. the same, except the blundering carvari for carvati. The comm. has ucyase for acyase. Ppp's a is tveṣāi ’va siñca itaror varṇyate. In b, which is the most hopeless part of the verse, K. reads yad apsaradrūr uparasya khādati, and Āp. doubtless intends the same, but is corrupted in part to apsararūparasya. The comm. has aparas for uparas. In c, K. has vakṣasā vakṣa ejayann, Āp. the same, and also, blunderingly, girāu for çiro. Ppp. has apsarā ’pso. In d, K. begins with aṅçum; Āp. has the same and also gabhasti; the comm. again bibhasti. The comm. has two different conjectures, both worthless, for uttaradrāu. ⌊Pischel discusses ápsas, Ved. Stud. i. 308 ff., and this vs. at p. 312. Aufrecht discusses the roots bhas, KZ. xxxiv. 458. Hillebrandt discusses this vs., Ved. Mythol. i. 154.⌋
3. The eagles have uttered (kṛ) their voice close in the sky; in the lair (ākhará) the black lively ones have danced; when they come down to the removal of the lower [stone], they have assumed much seed, they that resort to the sun.
In c, RV. has nyàn̄ (p. nyàk) ní yanti, for which our reading is evidently a corruption—as is probably also níṣkṛtim for RV. niṣkṛtám, and sūryaçrítas for RV. -çvítas at the end. The comm. has divi instead of dyavi in a. Ppp. has a very original d: puro vāco dadhire sūryasya. There is no reason for reckoning this jagatī as virāj.
# Atharva-Veda Samhita/Book VI/Hymn 51

51. For various blessings.
[Çaṁtāti.—āpyam; 3. varuṇastuti. trāiṣṭubham: 1. gāyatrī; 3. jagatī.]
Found also in Pāipp. xix., in the verse-order 1, 3, 2. The hymn is reckoned by Kāuç. (9. 2) to the bṛhachānti gaṇa; it is used (25. 20) in healing rites against various diseases, and (25. 21) especially against disorders arising from soma drinking; and (41. 14), with hymn 19 and others, in a ceremony for good fortune; it is further (note to 7. 14) one of the apāṁ sūktāni. Vāit. (30. 7) has it in the sāutrāmaṇī ceremony with the preparation of surā for one disordered by soma. ⌊Keçava (to 61. 5) counts this hymn (not 57) to a pavitra gaṇa.⌋
Translated: Griffith, i. 273.
1. Purified with Vāyu's purifier, Soma [hath] run over opposite (pratyán̄), Indra's suitable companion.
2. Let the mother waters further (sūd) us; let the ghee-purifying ones purify us with ghee; since the heavenly ones carry forth all evil (riprá), forth from them, indeed, I come clean, purified.
The verse is found also as RV. x. 17. 10, with the single variant çundhayantu at end of a; the comm. gives to sūd- the same meaning (kṣālayantu pāparahitān çuddhān kurvantu). VS. (iv. 2) also has it, precisely in the RV. version; and MS. (i. 2. 1), with mā for asmā́n and nas in a and b, and with -váhantu in c. Ppp. has -vahantu likewise, and at the end it reads pūtay emi, which, curiously enough, Schröder notes as read by two of his mss. and by the Kapiṣṭhala text. Ppp. has further the phonetic ⌊? graphic⌋ variant ghṛtapuvas in b.
3. Whatever, O Varuṇa, that is hateful to the people of the gods human beings practise here, if without intention we have obstructed thine ordinances (dhármān), do not, O god, harm us for that sin.
The verse is RV. vii. 89. 5, which, however, reads at end of b cárāmasi, and at beginning of c ácittī yát táva etc. TS. (iii. 4. 11$^6$) and MS. (iv. 12. 6) agree precisely with RV.
The fifth anuvāka, 10 hymns with 30 verses, ends here; the Anukr. quotation, pan̄cama, has to be combined with that to the next anuvāka.
Here ends also the thirteenth prapāṭhaka.
# Atharva-Veda Samhita/Book VI/Hymn 54

54. To secure and increase some one's superiority.
[Brahman.—āgnīṣomīyam. ānuṣṭubham.]
Found also in Pāipp. xix. Used by Kāuç. (48. 27), in a sorcery, with vii. 70, with the direction ity āhitāgnim pratinirvapati; vs. 2 appears also in the parvan sacrifice (4. 19), with an offering to Agni and Soma. And vs. 2 appears in Vāit. (3. 4), in the parvan sacrifice, with a silent offering to the same gods.
Translated: Griffith, i. 275.—He entitles it "Benediction on a newly elected King."
1. Now do I adorn this man as superior to his fellow, for attainment of Indra; do thou increase his authority, his great fortune, as the rain the grass.
The first half-verse is very obscure, and the rendering given only tentative; it implies the emendation of tát in a to tám, or else of idám to imám (as antecedent to asyá in c), and the understanding of yujá as for yujás, instead of yujé, which the pada-text gives for it both here and in 2 d; to read further índra (voc.) in b would much lighten the difficulty here, and also furnish a subject for the appeal in the next line. A dative with uttara is a construction perhaps unknown elsewhere. The comm. comfortably explains yuje as a verb "= yojayāmi." Ppp. reads yujaṁ (probably a mere error of the transcriber); and, for b, the corrupt yene ’ndraṁ çumbhā nv iṣṭaye; in c it has yasya for asya. The Anukr. seems to allow the contraction vṛṣṭir ’va in d. ⌊Roth's collation gives yugaṁ in a, and yuga in 2 d; but it may be a mere omission of the accent by which he distinguishes the palatal sonant (g′ = our j) from the guttural sonant (g).⌋ ⌊Plate 453$^{17}$ reads yugaṁ.⌋
2. For him, O Agni-and-Soma, maintain ye dominion, for him wealth; in the sphere of royalty make ye him superior to his fellow.
Two or three of our mss. have in b the bad reading dhārayatām; and, in c, even the majority of them give -vargre (as Bp. at iii. 5. 2, and B. Kp. at xi. 2. 4: but SPP. reports nothing of the sort in his authorities). Ppp. has yasya for the first asmāi, and asya for the second, and vardhayatas for dhārayatam in b; also aho for imam in c.
​3. Whoever, both related and unrelated, assails us—every such one mayest thou make subject to me, the sacrificer, the soma-presser.
The first half-verse is also 15. 2 a, b, above; the last half-verse is also 6. 1 c, d. Ppp. has, for b, yo jāto yaç ca niṣṭyaḥ; it further puts d before c, in the form sarvaṁ īvaṁ rīradhāsi naḥ.

NOTE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
It has long been my ambition to place within the easy reach of the English-reading public a cheap edition of the Bhagavad-Gita with the text in Devanagari and an English translation of the same. Mrs. Annie Besant, that warm and tried friend of India whose services to our land it were vain to count, has enabled me to realise that ambition by generously granting the use of her English translation. It is devoutly hoped that this great scripture of the Hindus will find a place in thousands of homes both in India and elsewhere.

# Aviation Accident Report: TWA crash on 26 January 1935

FOR IMMEDIATE USE
March 28, 1935.
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE BUREAU OF AIR COMMERCE WASHINGTON
STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE CONCERNING AN AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT WHICH OCCURRED TO A PLANE OF TRANSCONTINENTAL AND WESTERN AIR, INC. AT PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA, ON JANUARY 26, 1935
To the Secretary of Commerce:
On January 26, 1935 at about 2:20 a.m. near the Pittsburgh Allegheny County Municipal Airport, an airplane, while being operated in scheduled flight carrying express and United States mail, crashed with resultant death to the pilot and the complete destruction of the aircraft and cargo.
The pilot, Floyd F. Church, held Department of Commerce transport pilot's license No. 6180 and had a scheduled air transport rating. The plane, a Consolidated Fleetster, bore Department of Commerce license number NC-13212. No passengers were permitted to be carried.
The plane arrived at Allegheny Airport at about 2:05 a.m., was serviced with gas and oil and the cargo loaded. Icing conditions existed at the time and a mechanic called the pilot's attention to a coating of ice then on the wings and landing gear of the plane which in places was one-quarter of an inch thick.
The pilot elected to continue the flight and take-off was accomplished using a major portion of the long runway. As soon as the plane was well off the ground, it was observed to make a flat turn, as though returning to land. When at an altitude of approximately 200 feet and apparently about to assume a glide into the field, the airplane was seen to waver and fall into a spiral descent. The landing lights were seen to flash on at the beginning of the maneuver. Due to the terrain, the plane disappeared from the sight of witnesses on the airport before the actual crash occurred. The plane struck the ground with the engine running and fire followed immediately.
It is apparent from this description that the airplane had collected a further coating of ice which in addition to increasing its weight materially, also impaired the lifting action of the wings and probably obscured the pilot's vision.
It is the opinion of the Accident Board that the probable cause of this accident was poor judgment on the part of the pilot for attempting to take off under existing weather conditions and on the part of the Company for permitting the take-off.
Respectfully submitted,
Eugene L. Vidal, Director of Air Commerce.

# Banks of Sweet Primroses (Jackson and Son)

BANKS
OF SWEET
Primroses
As I walked out one summer's morning, To view the fields and take the air, Down by the banks of the sweet primroses There I beheld a most lovely fair.
Three long steps I took up to her, Not knowing her as she passed by, I stepped up to her thinking to view her She appeared to me like some virtuous maid.
I said, fair maid where are you going, Or what is the occasion of your grief, I'll make you as happy as any lady, If you will grant me but one small relief.
Stand off, stand off, you are deceitful, You are a deceitful one it is plain, It's that caused my poor heart to wander, To give me comfort it's all in vain
I'll go down into some lonesome valley, No man on earth shall e'er me find, Where the pretty Birds shall change their voices, At every moment shall blow boisterous winds
Come all you maidens who go a-courting, Pray give attention to what I say, For there's many a dark and cloudy morning, Turns out to be a sun-shining day.
