Adhyaya 51 — Yaksha Injunctions: Graha-Children and Female Spirits Causing Domestic and Ritual Disruptions
अवाप शकुनिः पञ्च जगृहुस्तान् सुरासुराः ।
श्येनं जग्राह मृत्युः च काकं कालो गृहीतवान् ॥
avāpa śakuniḥ pañca jagṛhus tān surāsurāḥ | śyenaṃ jagrāha mṛtyuś ca kākaṃ kālo gṛhītavān ||
นก (ศกุนิ) ได้รับห้า (สิ่งมีชีวิตเช่นนั้น) และเหล่าเทวดากับอสูรได้ยึดพวกมันไป ความตายได้ยึดเหยี่ยว และกาลเวลาได้ครอบครองอีกา

Hawk and crow indicate sharp seizure and lingering decay; assigning them to Mṛtyu and Kāla encodes a mapping of visible signs to invisible cosmic principles.
