open, the open one not close! Reverence (be) to the divine folk!
2. Reverence be to the black serpent, reverence to the one that is striped across! To the brown svaga reverence;

up, O serpent, thy mouth.

do thou (Rudra) with it show mercy to us, that we may live!

(shall fall): may every remedy be ours, may all remedies be ours!
