Let him not put it near (where grows) Bhûmipâsa, or reeds, or Asmagandhâ, or Adhyândâ, or Prisniparnî ('speckled-leaf,' Hemionitis cordifolia); nor let him make it near either an Asvattha (Ficus religiosa), or a Vibhîtaka (Terminalia bellerica), or a Tilvaka (Symplocos racemosa), or a Sphûrgaka (Diospyros embryopteris), or a Haridru (Pinus deodora), or a Nyagrodha (Ficus indica), or any other (trees) of evil name, so as to avoid (such) names from a desire of good luck.
