Now the eight-iḷā padastobha is secured fresh, without staling, among the iḷās. / Thereby single-hoofed cattle stay for him. / Evil seized Prajāpati by the head as he was emitting creatures. / He desired, 'May I strike away the evil.' / He saw these padastobhas. / With them he praised. / With them he struck away the evil. / One should sing them as if unwinding. / For as if unwinding, he struck away that evil from his head in the beginning. / One who knows thus strikes away evil from his head in the beginning, as if unwinding.
