Reading edition
Dvâ suparṇâ sayuǵâ sakhâyâ samânaṁ vṛiksham pari shasvaǵâte tayor anyaḥ pippalaṁ svâdv atty anaçnann anyo abhi ćâkaçîtî—Yatrâ suparṇâ amṛitasya bhâgam animeshaṁ vidathâbhisvaranti; Ṛigv. i. 164, 20.—Perhaps we should compare to this legend the two birds Amru and Ćamru of the Khorda-Avesta, of which one makes the seeds of the three mythical trees fall, and the other scatters them about.
