Huṃ phaṭ, strike, strike! Burn, burn! Cook, cook the flesh and blood, O wife of Ṛkṣa, svāhā!” Neither a lunar day nor a lunar mansion nor fasting is prescribed [for this].

The devices are of all water, namely: O crusher, O stupefier, O tearer of all enemies, protect, protect me, so-and-so, from all fears and calamities, svāhā!” / When semen is lost, O Mahādeva, I shall state here [the remedy] based on the twice-born.
