HYMN XLVI

A charm for offspring and prosperity 1. O broad-tressed Sinivāli, thou who art the sister of the Gods,   Accept the offered sacrifice, and, Goddess, grant us progeny. 2. Present the sacrifice to her, to Sinivāli, Queen of men, Beauti-    ful-fingered, lovely-armed, prolific, bearing many a child. 3. Thou who as Queen of men art Indra’s equal, a Goddess    coming with a thousand tresses,   To thee our sacrifices are performed, O Consort of Vishnu   Goddess, urge thy Lord to bounty!
