old, joyful like two birds (?)?, (do) their work well for us—they who weave, turned towards each other, the stretched-out warp, the ornamented form of the sacrifice ?, (the two goddesses) flowing with plenty, rich in milk.
7. May the two divine Hotris, the first ones, very knowing, very marvellous, perform the sacrifice rightly with their (sacrificial) verse. Sacrificing to the gods they anoint (them)', observing the right time, on the navel of the Earth, over the three ridges (of the three worlds).
8. May Sarasvati, the accomplisher of our prayer, may the goddess Ilà, all-victorious Bhârati—may the three goddesses, according to their wont, sit down on this Barhis and protect it, the faultless shelter.
9. Through (the god's) hearing (our prayer) a manly son is born (to us), tawny-coloured, rich in gain, bringing vigour, loving the gods. May Tvashtri deliver for us a son, the navel (i.e. the tie that binds generations together), and may he then go to the abode of the gods.
101. May the tree (i. e. the sacrificial post) stand by, letting loose (the offering which goes to the gods). May Agni make the offering ready in consequence of our prayers. May the prescient divine butcher carry the thrice-anointed offering to the gods.
11. Hel is joined with ghrita”. His womb (on the altar) is ghrita. He rests on ghrita. His abode is ghrita. Carry hither (the gods) according to thy wont! Rejoice 3! Carry, O bull, the offering, over which the Svâhâ has been spoken, (to the gods).
