945 3. Rich in manure, rich in fruit, svadhā́ and cheer (írā) in our house—prosperity let Dhātar assign to me through the keenness (téjas) of the [amulet] of udumbára.

4. Both what [is] two-footed and what four-footed, what foods [there are], what savors (rása)—I seize (grah) the abundance of them, wearing the amulet of udumbára.

5. I have seized all (pári-) the prosperity of cattle, of quadrupeds, of bipeds, and what grain [there is]; the milk of cattle, the sap (rása) of herbs, may Bṛihaspati, may Savitar confirm to me.

6. Let me be the over-ruler of cattle; let the lord of prosperity (puṣṭá-) assign to me prosperity; let the amulet of udumbára confirm to me possessions (dráviṇa).

7. Unto me the amulet of udumbára, with both progeny and riches: the amulet quickened by Indra hath come to me together with splendor.

8. The heavenly amulet, rival-slaying, riches-winning, in order to the winning of riches: let it confirm [to me] abundance of cattle, of food, [and] fatness of kine.

9. As in the beginning thou, O forest tree, wast born together with prosperity, so let Sarasvatī assign to me fatness of riches.

10. Riches, fatness of milk, and grain shall Sarasvatī, shall Sinīvālī, and this amulet of udumbára bring to me.
