Atharva Veda: Book 7: Hymn 28: Praise of the sacrificial utensils
Hymns of the Atharva Veda, by Ralph T.H. Griffith, [1895]
1Blest be the Broom, may the Mace bring a blessing, and may the
Altar and the Hatchet bless us.
Worshipful Gods, may they accept this worship, lovers of sacri-
fice, and sacrificers.
