Sukta 9
यत् ते पुच्छं ये ते बाला यदूधो ये च ते स्तनाः । आमिक्षां दुह्रतां दात्रे क्षीरं सर्पिरथो मधु

Thy tail, thy hairs, thine udder, and thy teats—let them be milked for the giver: clotted milk, milk, and ghee, and honey besides.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (anukramaṇī-dependent)
Devata: Cow/Payas; the udder as personified abundance
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh
