vii. 113- 1. O rough one! thou of rough creepers! cut up yon woman, O rough one!—that thou mayest be hateful (?) to yon man of virile power.

2. Rough art thou, a rough one; poisonous, a poisonous one art thou;—that thou mayest be avoided, as a barren cow (? vaçā́) of a bull.

 

1. I take from thy entrails (vakṣáṇā), I take from thy heart, from the aspect of thy face, I take all thy splendor.

2. Forth from here let anxieties go, forth regrets (? anudhyā́), and forth imprecations; let Agni smite the she-demoniacs; let Soma smite the abusers (f.).
