saptá maryā́dāḥ kaváyas tatakṣus tā́sām íd ékām abhy àṃhuró gāt | āyór ha skambhá upamásya nīḍé pathā́ṃ visargé dharúṇeṣu tasthau ||6||

Seven bourns (''maryā́dā'') did the poets fashion; unto one of these verily went one distressed; in the nest of the nearest (''upamá'') community (? ''āyú'') stood the pillar (''skambhá''), at the release (''visargá'') of the roads, in the supports (''dharúṇa'').
William Dwight Whitney (revised and edited by Charles Rockwell Lanman)

Seven are the pathways which the wise have fashioned; to one of these may come the troubled mortal. He standeth in the dwelling of the Highest, a Pillar, on sure ground where paths are parted.

What a match here does and does not show

These links are derived by comparing normalised Sanskrit surfaces. They show that two collections carry the same wording. They are not, by themselves, a demonstrated line of transmission between them, and the direction stored on an edge is a property of how it was built.

Atharvaveda is one of four collections held here. Cross-corpus comparison bottoms out at the weakest shared surface, because a Devanagari text and a romanised text share no code points.

How these were derived1

  • Parallelism is symmetric and this graph stores it as a directed edge, so these relations are traversed in both directions and each row states which way the stored edge ran. All 1,684 REUSES_TEXT_FROM edges point Samaveda-to-Rigveda, and 1,421 Rigvedic passages have reuse edges only inbound; following the arrow would show those 1,421 verses no reuse at all.
