Next keep each piece separately into the fruit of seven-leaved (Satpaḍā) datura, press one leaf of datura every day and put the juice into the fruit. Do it this every day. Keep them by your side by putting them into a bag, while getting juice. (every day), there will be mouth into the pieces (of the body of the snake) after six months. Amongst these guțika two kinds of guțika are produced. One is the accomplished goțika of frog, it is called Buḍanta. Its importance (or power) is now stated.
A river flows, even then one can cross the flood water, water will get divided (separated) to (on) both sides. This is the process of Buḍantagoțikā.1

The second guțika is produced into the belly of the snake. Its name is called Gaḍanta guțikā by which magic (or mieracle) is shown to the people.

Put mercury tā. 11 into it, then put a cover over it by filling it into the nest, give incense frankincense to the nest for 2 or 3 days. After some days the eggs of the kite become large, then the kinds fly away after hatching. Next take out the egg and keep it in a separate place. Every day give fresh incense to it after taking food. Having given it (incense) put it in its proper place. A period of 6 months and 6 days is passed by doing thus.
