Thus (ends) in the Āgneya Mahāpurāṇa the one hundred and seventy-ninth chapter, called 'The Fourth-day Observances'. [Variant readings: 1 'I shall declare the fourth-day observance, which grants enjoyment and liberation' — ms. ṅa; 2 'varṣan nirvighnataḥ' — mss. ṅa, ña; 'varṣan nirvighnavān' — ms. ga; 3 'hāṃ svāhā' — ms. kha; 4 'cakramuṇḍāya' — mss. kha, gha; 'vakramuṇḍāya' — ms. ṅa; 'raktatuṇḍāya' — mss. ja, jha. p. 206] Chapter 180. Now the one hundred and eightieth chapter: the Fifth-day Observances. Agni said: I shall declare the fifth-day observance, which gives health, heaven and liberation — in Nabhas (Śrāvaṇa), Nabhasya (Bhādrapada), Āśvina and Kārttika, in the bright fortnight.
