AVŚ 9.9.16

साकंजानां सप्तथम् आहुर् एकजं षड् इद् यमा ऋषयो देवजा इति । तेषाम् इष्टानि विहितानि धामश स्थात्रे रेजन्ते विकृतानि रूपशः ॥१६॥

sākaṃjānāṃ saptatham āhur ekajaṃ ṣaḍ id yamā ṛṣayo devajā iti | teṣām iṣṭāni vihitāni dhāmaśa sthātre rejante vikṛtāni rūpaśaḥ ||16||

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

Of those born together the seventh they call sole-born; six, they say, are twins, god-born seers; the sacrifices (? iṣṭá) of them, distributed according to their abodes, quake in their station, being altered (vi-kṛ) in respect to form.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
