1. We have heard it said that the mother of the black Apakit (pustules) is red: with the root (found by) the divine sage do I strike all these. 2. I strike the foremost one of them, and I strike also the middlemost of them; this hindmost one I cut off as a flake (of wool). B. Charm to appease jealousy. 3. With Tvashtar's charm I have sobered down thy jealousy; also thy anger, O lord, we have quieted. C. Prayer to Agni, the lord of vows. 4. Do thou, O lord of vows, adorned with vows, ever benevolently here shine! May we all, adoring thee, when thou hast been kindled, O Gâtavedas, be rich in offspring!
