One who desires cattle should sacrifice with the Chitra offering; Chitra is this earth; in that in this earth all things are produced, thereby is this earth variegated (chitra); one who, knowing thus, sacrifices with the Chitra, desirous of cattle, is propagated with offspring, with cattle, with pairings. With the offering to the Radiant he strews, with that to the Provider he impregnates seed, the seed impregnated the Fashioner develops into forms; there are offerings to Sarasvant and Sarasvati; that is the divine pair; thus in the midst he bestows upon him a divine pair, for growth, for propagation. There is an oblation to Sinivali; Sinivali is speech, speech is growth; thus he approaches speech and growth. The last is to the Mighty, and thereby there is a pair. Seven are these offerings, the tame animals are seven, the wild seven; the metres are seven, for the winning of both. Then he offers these oblations; these are the lords of growth; thus they bestow growth upon him, and he grows with offspring and cattle; moreover in that he offers these oblations, they serve for support.
