Sukta 109
पिप्पली-भैषज्यम्। पिप्पली क्षिप्तभेषज्यू३तातिविद्धभेषजी। तां देवाः समकल्पयन्नियं जीवितवा अलम्
pippalī́ kṣíptabheṣajy ù́3tátividdhabheṣajī́ | tā́m devā́ḥ sám akalpayan níyáṃ jī́vitavā́ álam ||
Pippalī is a medicament for him that is smitten down, yea, a medicament for him that is sorely pierced. Her did the Gods duly constitute: this one is sufficient, in very truth, for life.
毗波梨(Pippalī)是良药:为被击倒者为药,为被深深刺伤者亦为药。诸天神如法安立了她:此一味,确然足以护持生命。
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (often transmitted under Atharvan/Angiras lineages for bhaiṣajya hymns; exact r̥ṣi ascription varies by anukramaṇī).
Devata: Pippalī as personified Bhaiṣajya; secondarily the Devas as ordainers of the remedy.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; common for AV healing verses)
