1.14.1
भगमस्या वर्च आदिष्यधि वृक्षादिव स्रजम् ।
महाबुध्न इव पर्वतो ज्योक्पितृष्वास्ताम् ॥ १.१४.१ ॥
As a garland is hung from a tree, I set her radiance and good fortune in place. Like a mountain with a great root, may she remain long among her fathers.
1.14.2
एषा ते राजन् कन्या वधूर्नि धूयतां यम ।
सा मातुर्बध्यतां गृहेऽथो भ्रातुरथो पितुः ॥ १.१४.२ ॥
O king, this is your maiden, this is the bride; O Yama, let her be sent away. Let her be bound in her mother's house, and in her brother's, and also in her father's.
1.14.3
एषा ते कुलपा राजन् तामु ते परि दद्मसि ।
ज्योक्पितृष्वासाता आ शीर्ष्णः शमोप्यात् ॥ १.१४.३ ॥
O king, she is the guardian of your family; we give her over to you. May she remain long among her fathers, and attain well-being up to her head.

असितस्य ते ब्रह्मणा कश्यपस्य गयस्य च ।
अन्तःकोशमिव जामयोऽपि नह्यामि ते भगम् ॥ १.१४.४ ॥
By the sacred formula of Asita, of Kaśyapa and of Gaya, I bind your fortune, as an inner casket is bound; so also may your kinsfolk be bound to you.
