Many thanks to Peter Bisschop for noting the source of one of my
Atharva"siras verses in Paa"upata Suutra 5.35-38, which I had not
noticed (despite having looked for quotations from PaaSu before!).  The
Li*nga-Puraa.na verse he mentions is in fact part of a versified
paraphrase of the entire Atharva"siras that begins with LP 2.17.9cd.
