देवानाम् अस्थि कृशनं बभूव तद् आत्मन्वच् चरत्य् अप्स्व् अन्तः । तत् ते बध्नाम्य् आयुषे वर्चसे बलाय दीर्घायुत्वाय शतशारदाय कार्शनस् त्वाभि रक्षतु ॥७॥

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

The gods' bone became pearl; that goes about within the waters, possessing soul; that do I bind on thee in order to life-time, splendor, strength, to length of life for a hundred autumns: let [the amulet] of pearl defend thee.
