" May the celestials, demons, Yakshas, Serjjents'Rákshasas, Gandharbas, Pisáchas, Guhyakas, Siddas, Kushmandas, trees, birds, fish, all that in habit the waters or the earth, or the air, be propitiated by the water I have offered to them. This water is presented by me for the mitigation of the sufíerings of all those who have been put to hell. Let them be propitiated with this water who are my friends, who are not my friends, who were my friends in my former birth and all those who expect water from me. May this water and sesamum offered by me remove the hunger and thirst of all those who are suffering therefrom wherever they may live." The offcrings, of water, king, in the manner I have des- cribed, give satisfaction to all the world. Having offered water duly and reverentially to all the sinless man obtains tlie piety that comes from satisfying the world.
