I saw you born of ascetic mind, sprung forth in tapas, mighty through penance. Here, O people, be prosperous; may you grow in offspring and attain sons as you desire.

(The wife speaks). I beheld you in my mind conversant (with sacred rites), born of penance, renownedfor penance; enjoying in this world progeny and riches, do you who are desirous of offspring beget offspring.

I SAW thee meditating in thy spirit what sprang from Fervour and hath thence developed. Bestowing offspring here, bestowing riches, spread in thine offspring, thou who cravest children.
