Sukta 3
यत् ते नद्धं विश्ववारे पाशो ग्रन्थिश्च यः कृतः । बृहस्पतिरिवाहं बलं वाचा वि स्रंसयामि तत्
yát te naddháṃ viśva-vāre pā́śo gránthiś ca yáḥ kṛtáḥ | bṛ́haspátir ivāháṃ bálaṃ vācā́ ví sraṃsayāmi tát
What binding thou hast, O all-warding,—the noose, the knot, which hath been made,—that, like Bṛhaspati, I with speech unloose, and make its force fall away.
Rishi: Atharvanic/Āṅgirasa attribution (Anukramaṇī tradition)
Devata: Bṛhaspati (by comparison) and the ‘pāśa/granthi’ as object-devatā
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh
