एतेषाम् एकः पुरीषे मूत्रे वा निखात आनाहं करोति, पदे अस्य आसने वा निखातः शोषेण मारयति, आपणे क्षेत्रे गृहे वा वृत्तिच् छेदं करोति ॥

When one of these pieces is put in the feces or urine (of an enemy), it causes (his) body to grow in size (ánáha); and when the same piece is buried under the feet or seat (of an enemy), it causes death by consumption; and when it is buried in the shop, fields, or the house (of an enemy), it causes him loss of livelihood.
