Plain text of Book 6, Hymn 11

The Asvattha on the Sami-tree. There a male birth is certified. There is the finding of a son: this bring we to the women-folk.

2 The father sows the genial seed, the woman tends and fosters it. This is the finding of a son: thus has the Creator declared.

3 The Creator has ordered it. Elsewhere may He effect the birth of maids, but here prepare a boy.
