Mantra 49
Rishi: Traditionally connected with the Rudra-hymnic stream; in Śukla-Yajurveda transmission often left as anukramaṇī-tradition dependent.
Devata: Rudra (as Śiva, the healing form).
Chandas: Mixed/prose-like yajus-formula with metrical cadence; often treated as yajus rather than strict ṛk-meter in ritual recitation.

Translation
Die heilsame Gestalt von dir, o Rudra—heilsam, allzeit heilend—das heilsame Heilmittel des Ṛta: mit ihr sei uns gnädig, zu unserem Leben.
