HYMN CLXXXIV.

MAY Indra form and mould the womb. May Tvaṣṭar duly shape the forms, Prajāpati infuse the stream, and Dhātar lay the germ for thee.

O Sinīvālī, set the germ, set thou the germ, Sarasvatī: May the Twain Devas bestow the germ, the Indra crowned with lotuses.

That which the Indra Twain rub forth with the attrition-sticks of gold. That germ of thine we invocate, that in the tenth month tho. Mayst bear.
