Various Rishis

Shukla Yajur Veda — Adhyaya 29, Mantra 14

Rishi: Traditional Aśvamedha-anukramaṇī attribution (often treated as ritual/anonymous rather than a single ṛṣi); later tradition associates the Vājasaneyin corpus with Yājñavalkya

Devata: Aśva (sacrificial horse) identified with Yama/Āditya/Trita; ultimately Prajāpati/Āditya-bandhu

Chandas: Triṣṭubh (predominant cadence; mixed/irregularities possible in transmitted accent-text)

Translation

तू यम है; तू आदित्य है; हे अश्व, तू गुप्त व्रत के द्वारा त्रित है। तू सोम के साथ नियत काल में पृथक् किया गया है; वे तेरे विषय में कहते हैं—‘दिवि तेरे तीन बन्धन हैं।’
