Thus at the fifth oblation, (the oblation called) water comes to be designated as man. That foetus, covered with membrane, lies within (the mother's womb), more or less, for nine or ten months, and is then born.

sa jāto yāvadāyuṣaṃ jīvati \
taṃ pretaṃ diṣṭam ito 'gnaya eva haranti yata eveto yataḥ saṃbhūto bhavati \\509.2\
Being born, he lives whatever the length of his life may be. When he is dead (to attain the world) as ordained, they carry him from here (for cremation) to fire itself from which alone he came and from which he arose.
