When he saw that he did not get the earrings, although he had worshipped the Nagas, he looked around him and beheld two women working in a loom with fine shuttle and weaving a piece of cloth. There were black and white threads in the loom. He also saw a wheel, with twelve spokes, which was turned round by six boys. He also saw a man with a horse. In order to please them all he uttered the following Mantras.
