1. As this great earth conceives the germs of the beings, thus shalt thy embryo be-beld fast, to produce a child after pregnancy! 2. As this great earth holds these trees, thus shall thy embryo be held fast, to produce a child after pregnancy! 3. As this great earth holds the mountains and the peaks, thus shall thy embryo be held fast, to produce a child after pregnancy! 4. As this great earth holds the animals scattered far, thus shall thy embryo be held fast, to produce a child after pregnancy!
