Sukta 8
यास्तिरश्चीरुपर्षन्त्यर्षणीर्वक्षणासु ते । अहिंसन्तीरनामया निर्द्रवन्तु बहिर्बिलम्
yās tiráścīr úparṣanty arṣaṇī́r vakṣaṇā́su te | ahíṃsantīr anāmayā́ nírdravantu bahírbilám ||
What female powers, spreading crosswise, press upon thy joints, upon thy groins—harmless, unailing, let them run forth, away, unto the outer burrow.
