THE SUSHRUTA SAMHITA
[Chap. XXXVI.
The Mantra runs as follows: — "May the far-famed god, Naigamesha, the preserver of children, who has a goat's face with moving brow and rolling eyes and who can assume different forms at will, preserve the child." 2.
Thus ends the thirty-sixth chapter of the Uttara-Tantra in the Sus'ruta Simhitá which deals with the medical treatment of (an attack by) Naigamesha.
