pañcapādaṃ pitaraṃ dvādaśākṛtiṃ diva āhuḥ pare ardhe purīṣiṇam
atheme anya u pare vicakṣaṇaṃ saptacakre ṣaḍara āhurarpitamiti
11. They speak of a father, five-footed, twelve-formed,
Rich in moisture, as in the higher half of heaven.
But others here speak of a sage in the lower half,
Set in a seven-wheeled, six-spoked [chariot].
