Plain text of Book 6, Hymn 137
The plant which Jamadagni dug to make his daughter's locks grow long, this same has Vitahavya brought to us from the dwelling of the dark one.
2 They might be measured with a rein, meted with both extended arms. Let the black locks spring thick and strong and grow like reeds upon thy head.
3 Strengthen the roots, prolong the points, lengthen the middle part, O plant. Let the black locks spring thick and strong and grow like reeds upon thy head.
