By what thou hast become barren (vehát), that we make disappear from thee; that now we set down elsewhere, far away from (ápa) thee.

For fecundity
By what thou hast become barren (vehát), that we make disappear from thee; that now we set down elsewhere, far away from (ápa) thee.
Unto thy womb let a fœtus come, a male one, as an arrow to a quiver; let a hero be born unto thee here, a ten-months' son.
Give birth to a male, a son; after him let a male be born; mayest thou be mother of sons, of those born and whom thou shalt bear.
And what excellent seeds the bulls generate, with them do thou acquire (vid) a son; become thou a productive milch-cow.
I perform for thee the [ceremony] of Prajāpati; let a fœtus come to thy womb; acquire thou a son, O woman, who shall be weal for thee; weal also for him do thou become.
The plants of which heaven has been the father, earth the mother, ocean the root—let those herbs of the gods (dāíva) favor thee, in order to acquisition of a son.
