tr̥ṣṭám etát káṭukam apāṣṭhávad viṣávan náitád áttave | sūryā́ṃ yó brahmā́ véda sá íd vā́dhūyam arhati ||29||

Harsh is that, sharp, barbed, poisoned; that is not to be eaten; what priest (''brahmán'') knows Sūryā, he indeed deserves the bride's [garment].
William Dwight Whitney (revised and edited by Charles Rockwell Lanman)
RigvedaRV 10.85.34

tṛ̱ṣṭam e̱tat kaṭu̍kam e̱tad a̍pā̱ṣṭhava̍d vi̱ṣava̱n naitad atta̍ve | sū̱ryāṁ yo bra̱hmā vi̱dyāt sa id vādhū̍yam arhati ||

Pungent is this, and bitter this, filled, as it were, with arrow-barbs, Empoisoned and not fit for use. The Brahman who knows Surya well deserves the garment of the bride.
Ralph T. H. Griffith

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.
