Nakṣatra-Śrāddha (Ancestral Rites Connected with Asterisms) — नक्षत्रश्राद्धम्
आजेन सर्वलोहेन वर्षासु च मघासु च / एष्टव्या बहवः पुत्रा यद्येको ऽपि गयां व्रजेत् / गौरीं वाप्युद्वहेद्भार्यां नालं वा वृषमुत्सृजेत्
ājena sarvalohena varṣāsu ca maghāsu ca / eṣṭavyā bahavaḥ putrā yadyeko 'pi gayāṃ vrajet / gaurīṃ vāpyudvahedbhāryāṃ nālaṃ vā vṛṣamutsṛjet
With the offering of a goat and gifts of all metals, in the rainy season and under the Maghā asterism, one should desire many sons—for if even one goes to Gayā, it suffices. Or one should wed a wife pure as Gaurī, or release the bull called Nālaṃ.
