(With the texts,) 'Who art thou? Whose art thou? To whom do I sacrifice thee, desirous of (dwelling in the) village? Svâhâ!
'Thou art the gods' share on this (earth). From here have sprung the fathers who have passed away. The ruler has sacrificed, desirous of (dwelling in the) village, not omitting anything that belongs to the gods. Svâhâ!'
