23Taking on his head the blessings the pleased twice-born speak, and bowing his head in devotion, he should eat with their leave. 24Putting the teacher in front, keeping his speech in check, along with the kinsmen, he should give his wife what is left of the boiled offering, for good children and good fortune. 25Having carried out this vow of the mighty one by the rule, a man gets here the thing he wants; and a woman who takes it up gets good fortune, wealth, children, a husband who lives, fame, a home. 26A girl gets a husband with every good mark on him; a woman without one gets the state where her faults are wiped away; one whose children have died gets living sons; the very unlucky becomes lucky and mistress of wealth; and beauty of the first rank
27an ugly woman gets. A sick man is freed of his sickness and has a body with its senses in working order. And where this is recited at a rite for increase, the fathers and the gods are satisfied without end. 28Pleased, they give every wish; and at the close of the offering the eater of oblations, and Sri, and Hari give them too. King, the great and holy birth of the Maruts, and Diti's great vow, have been told to you.
