Mantra 1
Sukta 68
वेदोक्तं कर्म। अव्यसश्च व्यचसश्च बिलं वि ष्यामि मायया । ताभ्यामुद्धृत्य वेदमथ कर्माणि कृण्महे
vedóktam kárma | avyásaś ca vyácaśaś ca biláṃ ví ṣyāmi māyáyā | tā́bhyām uddhṛ́tya védam átha kármāṇi kṛṇmahe
A rite enjoined by the Veda: with Avyasa and with Vyacas will I, by magic power, cleave open the cavity; and, having drawn forth the Veda by those twain, then do we perform the rites.
Rishi: Atharvanic/anonymous (late technical verse).
Devata: Avyasa and Vyacas (paired powers); secondarily Veda/Brahman as efficacious speech.
Chandas: Mixed/prose-like with anuṣṭubh cadence; often treated as a technical mantra rather than strict metrical verse.
