1. MAY Visnu form and mould the womb, may Tvastar duly shape the forms,
Prajapati infuse the stream, and Dhatar lay the germ for thee.
2. O Sinivali, set the germ, set thou the germ, Sarasvati:
May the Twain Gods bestow the germ, the Asvins crowned with lotuses.
3. That which the Asvins Twain rub forth with the attrition-sticks of gold,-
That germ of thine we invocate, that in the tenth month thou mayst bear.
