Transliteration
adityai rāsnā asi aditis te bilaṃ gṛbhṇātu | kṛtvāya sā mahīm ukhāṃ mṛṇmayīṃ yonim agnaye | putrebhyaḥ prāyacchad aditiḥ śrapayān iti ||
Translation
ท่านคือบังเหียนของอทิติ (Aditi); ขอให้อทิติยึดครองโพรงของท่านเถิด. ครั้นได้ทำอุคา (ukhā) อันยิ่งใหญ่ด้วยดิน เป็นครรภ์ (yoni) แห่งอัคนี (Agni) แล้ว อทิติก็มอบสิ่งนั้นแก่บุตรทั้งหลายของนาง—แด่ (อัคนี) “ผู้ปรุงต้ม” (śrapayān)—ดังที่เล่าขานกันมา.
