Pṛthivī-dohaṇa (The Milking of the Earth) and the Praise of King Pṛthu
दक्षो जज्ञे महातेजाः सोमस्यांशेन वीर्यवान् / असृजन्मनसा त्वादौ प्रजा दक्षो ऽथ मैथुनात्
dakṣo jajñe mahātejāḥ somasyāṃśena vīryavān / asṛjanmanasā tvādau prajā dakṣo 'tha maithunāt
Dakṣa was born, mighty in splendor and vigor, from a portion of Soma; at first he created beings by mind alone, and afterward through union.
