अजेयः सर्वशत्रूणां सर्वव्यसनवर्जितः । ये करिष्यंति च स्नानमनेन मृगचर्मणा
ajeyaḥ sarvaśatrūṇāṃ sarvavyasanavarjitaḥ | ye kariṣyaṃti ca snānamanena mṛgacarmaṇā
يكونون لا يُقهَرون أمام جميع الأعداء، ومبرّئين من كل نازلة—هكذا يكون حالُ من سيؤدّون الاغتسال بهذه الجِلدة من جلد الغزال على الوجه المأمور.

Scene: Pilgrims at a sacred waterbody perform a ritual bath holding or using a deer-hide as part of the rite; a symbolic aura of protection surrounds them, with subdued martial motifs (shields/standards) indicating ‘ajeya’ blessing.
Tīrtha-snānā performed with śraddhā and correct ritual aids is said to confer both dhārmic purity and worldly protection.
The same tīrtha/kuṇḍa described in Nāgarakhaṇḍa Adhyāya 190, where a prescribed snāna is praised for its protective fruit.
A snāna (ritual bath) performed ‘with this deer-skin’—i.e., employing mṛgacarma as the ritual implement/aid.
