¹⁷³¹ आ घा ता गच्छादुत्तरा युगानि यत्र जामयः कृणवन्नजामि। ऋ. X. 10. 10. The Nirukta (IV. 20) understood this verse in the sense given above 'आगमिष्यन्ति तानि उत्तराणि युगानि यत्र जामयः करिष्यन्ति अजामिकर्माणि'. Ṛg. I. 113. 13 and III. 33. 8 make it clear that उत्तर must mean 'future'. शश्वत्पुरोषा व्युवास देव्यथो अद्येदं व्यावो मघोनी। अथो व्युच्छादुत्तराँ अहर्यूनजरामृता चरति स्वधाभिः॥ ऋ. I. 113. 13. Here the occurrence and sequence of पुरा, अद्य and उत्तरान् leave no doubt about the meaning of the last word.
