4.7.35 Sukta 35 – An Incantation to make a Woman Sterile<br />

1. <strong>The</strong> other enemies conquer with might; beat back, O Gâtavedas, those that are not yet born! Enrich this<br />

kingdom unto happiness, may all the gods acclaim this man!<br />

2. Of these hundred entrails of thine, as well as of the thousand canals, of all these have I closed the openings<br />

with a stone.<br />

3. <strong>The</strong> upper part of the womb do I place below, there shall come to thee neither offspring nor birth! I render thee<br />

sterile and devoid of offspring; a stone do I make into a cover for thee.<br />

4.7.36 Sukta 36 – Love Charm spoken by a Bridal Couple<br />

1. Sweet like honey be the messages we convey to each other with our glances. May we place each other in our<br />

hearts; and May our minds become one.<br />

4.7.37 Sukta 37 – Cure against one that practices hostile Charms<br />

1. <strong>The</strong> thousand-eyed curse having yoked his chariot has come hither, seeking out him that curses me, as a wolf<br />

the house of him that owns sheep.<br />

2. Avoid us, O curse, as a burning fire (avoids) a lake! Strike here him that curses us, as the lightning of heaven<br />

the tree!<br />

3. He that shall curse us when we do not curse, and he that shall curse us when we do curse, him do I hurl to<br />

death as a bone to a dog upon the ground.<br />

4.7.38 Sukta 38 – Charm to secure the love of a Man<br />

1. This potent herb do I dig out: it draws toward me the eve, causes (love's) tears. It brings back him who has<br />

gone to a distance, rejoices him that approaches me.<br />

2. By (the plant) with which the Âsurî allured Indra away from the gods, by that do I subject thee, that I may be<br />

well-beloved of thee!<br />

3. Thy face is turned towards Soma (the nioon), thy face is turned towards Sûrya (the sun), thy face is turned<br />

towards all the gods: 't is tliee here that we do invoke.<br />

4. My speech, not thine, (in this matter) hath weight: in the assembly, forsooth, do thou speak! To me alone shalt<br />

thou belong, shalt not even discourse of other women!<br />

5. Whether thou art beyond the haunts of men, or whether across the river, this very herb, as if a captive bound,<br />

shall bring, thee back to me!<br />

4.7.39 Sukta 39 – ?? Charm pronounced by the Bride over the Bridegroom<br />

1. I envelope thee in my garment (that was produced by Manu - the first man) and declare that thou shalt be mine<br />

and mine alone. I shall not allow the thought of other women to enter my mind.<br />
