अथ यज्ञे समाप्ते तु प्रीतः परमया मुदा । उमापतिर्द्विजान्सर्वानुवाच इलसन्निधौ ॥ 7-90-16 ॥

Now, when the sacrifice was completed, the Lord of Uma, pleased and filled with the utmost joy, spoke to all the twice-born in the presence of Ila.

english translation

प्रीतो ऽस्मि हयमेधेन भक्त्या च द्विजसत्तमाः । अस्य बाह्लिपतेश्चैव किं करोमि प्रियं शुभम् ॥ 7-90-17 ॥

"I am pleased by this horse-sacrifice and by your devotion, O best of the twice-born. What pleasant and auspicious thing may I do for this lord of Bahli?"

english translation

तथा वदति देवेशे द्विजास्ते सुसमाहिताः । प्रसादयन्ति देवेशं यथा स्यात्पुरुषस्त्विला ॥ 7-90-18 ॥

When the Lord of the gods spoke thus, those twice-born ones, well-composed, propitiated the Lord of the gods so that Ila might become a man.

english translation

ततः प्रीतो महादेवः पुरुषत्वं ददौ पुनः । इलायै सुमहातेजा दत्त्वा चान्तरधीयत ॥ 7-90-19 ॥

Then the great god, pleased, the one of mighty splendor, granted manhood once more to Ila, and having granted it, vanished.

english translation

निवृत्ते हयमेधे च गतश्चादर्शनं हरः । यथागतं द्विजाः सर्वे ह्यगच्छन्दीर्घदर्शिनः ॥ 7-90-20 ॥

And when the horse-sacrifice had ended, Hara departed from sight, and all those far-seeing twice-born ones went back as they had come.
