HYMN CXXX

A woman's love-charm

1This is the Apsarases' love-spell, the conquering, resistless ones'.
  Send the spell forth, ye Deities! Let him consume with love of
   me.
2I pray, may he remember me, think of me, loving and beloved.
  Send forth the spell, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
   of me.
3That he may think of me, that I may never, never think of him,.
  Send forth the spell, ye Deities! Let him consume with love
   of me.
4Madden him, Maruts, madden him. Madden him, madden him,
  O Air.
  Madden him, Agni, madden him. Let him consume with love
   of me.
