1.2.5.1

āgantrā samaganmahi pra sa mṛtyuṃ yuyotana \ ariṣṭāḥ saṃcaremahi svasti caratādiha \ svastyā gṛhebhyaḥ \ iti pradakṣiṇamagniṃ parikrāmantamabhimantrayate \1\

'To him who comes (to us), we have come. Drive ye away death! May we walk with him safely; may he walk here in bliss; (may he) walk in bliss until (he returns) to his house'—this (verse the teacher repeats) while (the boy) walks round the fire so as to keep his right side turned towards it.

Hermann Oldenberg 1892, The Grihya-sûtras, Part II (SBE 30)
