Pure is he whose rite is praised here; mothers bear noble sons when the sacred chants are duly performed and the oblations are offered.

Bright as an axe is he to whom the (worshipper), like Atri, proceeds (to offer worship); he whom his prolific mother has brought forth, bestowing (a benefactor on the world), when (Agni) obtains (sacrificial) food.

For him, to whom, bright as an axe he, as to Atri, hath flashed forth, Hath the well-bearing Mother borne, producing when her time is come.
