cittim acittiṃ cinavad vi vidvān pṛṣṭheva vītā vṛjinā ca martān | rāye ca naḥ svapatyāya deva ditiṃ ca rāsvāditim uruṣya

May he who knows distinguish sense and folly of men, like straight and crooked backs of horses. Lead us, O God, to wealth and noble offspring: keep penury afar and grant us plenty.
