Or for Visvakarman (the All-worker), for all work is done, everything is won by those who sit in session for a year: hence for Visvakarman,--with (Vâg. S. VIII, 45; Rig-veda X, 81, 7), 'Vâkaspati Visvakarman, the thought-speeder, let us invoke for protection in our struggle this day: may he, the all-beneficient worker of good, delight in all our offerings for our protection!--Thou art taken with a support: thee to Indra Visvakarman!--This is thy womb; thee to Indra Visvakarman!'
