Through this they obtain the virāj, food, in regular order. The seers, desiring prosperity, indeed saw this dear approach of speech: “Then make us more prosperous! Then make us more prosperous!” With that they praised. Then indeed all of them prospered. All indeed prosper who, knowing this, praise with this set of ten verses. They place the refrain at the end. The sixth day is sap, to prevent its overflowing. Just as one would plaster a dam for waters, exactly so do they place the refrain at the end to prevent the sap from overflowing. It consists of four verses to obtain four-footed cattle. They are cryptically two-footed, to obtain two-footed cattle. It is, as it were, distinct praise of man (nārāśaṃsa) for the attainment of both desires, both the divine and the human. They place the refrain at the end. The sixth day is sap, to prevent its overflowing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [23.138.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138.p1) atha ha vai tarantapurumīḍhau vaitadaśvī dhvasrayoḥ puruṣantyorbahu pratigṛhya > en: Now Taranta and Purumīḍha, sons of Vidad-aśva, after accepting much from Dhvasra and Puruṣanti, > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [23.138.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138.p2) garagirāviva menāte > en: felt as if they had swallowed poison. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [23.138.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138.p3) tau ha smāṃgulyā sātaṃ pratimamṛśāte > en: They touched with a finger what had been gained. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [23.138.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138.p4) tāvakāmayetāmasātaṃ nāvidaṃ sātaṃ syādāttamivaiva na pratigṛhītamiti > en: They desired: “May what is not gained by us be gained; may it be as if taken, not accepted!” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.23.138) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.23.138) · Pramāṇa
