AVŚ 6.141.2

लोहितेन स्वधितिना मिथुनं कर्णयोः कृधि । अकर्ताम् अश्विना लक्ष्म तद् अस्तु प्रजया बहु ॥२॥

lohitena svadhitinā mithunaṃ karṇayoḥ kṛdhi | akartām aśvinā lakṣma tad astu prajayā bahu ||2||

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

With the red knife (svádhiti), make thou a pair (mithuná) on [their] two ears; the Açvins have made the mark; be that numerous by progeny.
