At this ceremony also songs in honour of the pitṛs are sung by those who recite the Veda, songs which were[33] formerly sung by the pitṛs to king Purūravas. “When will any one of us have a son, the chief among his race, who, eating the remains of food left by the yogis, will offer the piṇḍa on earth? Or will offer the piṇḍa, buffalo-beef, the clarified butter, or the vegetable kāla[34] mixed with sesamum-seed, or khichree at Gayā for our monthly satisfaction? May we obtain[35] the offering to the Viśvadevas and the soma juice, buffalo-beef, and the finest clarified butter, and the divine food[36] by getting a young[37] rhinoceros!”
