Mantra 24
Sukta 4
इन्द्र जहि पुमांसं यातुधानमुत स्त्रियं मायया शाशदानाम्। विग्रीवासो मूरदेवा ऋदन्तु मा ते दृशन्त्सूर्यमुच्चरन्तम्
índra jahí pumā́ṃsaṁ yātudhā́nam utá stríyaṁ māyáyā śā́śadānām | vígrīvāso mū́radevā ṛ́dantu mā́ te dṛśan sū́ryam úccarantam ||
O Indra, smite the male Yātudhāna, and eke the female, of them that by illusion ever wound. Crook-necked, false-god fiends—let them cry out; let them not behold the Sun as he goes up.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (not specified in input)
Devata: Indra; Sun invoked as the marker of exclusion
