Attribution

Rishi: Uncertain (AV20 is largely Rigvedic reprise material; r̥ṣi attribution requires full hymn context).

Devata: Not explicit in this pāda; functional ‘devatā’ is expiation/énas-removal through havís.

Chandas: Uncertain from fragment; likely a Rigvedic meter in AV20 context (requires full verse).
