जातकम् १
शिश्नापाते च वृषणौ जघने जानुनी तथा ।जंघे पादौ चोभयत्र त्र्यंशैः समुदितैर्वदेत् ॥ ९३ ॥
In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 93.
Then the penis, the anus, the testicles, the hips and the knees. Then the shanks and the feet. Read these on both sides by the three drekkanas (one-third part of a sign) as they rise. (Our text is unclear here: 'samuditaih', read as 'as they rise'.)
Simple meaning: More body parts are listed, read on both sides of the body by thirds of the rising sign.
पापयुक्ते व्रणस्तस्मिन्नंगे लक्ष्म च तद्युते ।
A wound or mark on that body part is inborn or comes later depending on the planet's place.
मंदेऽनिलाश्मजो भौमे विषशस्त्राग्निजो बुधे ।
Each planet shows what a wound or scar comes from.
तिलकृन्मसकृदृष्टसौम्यैर्युक्तश्च लक्ष्मवान् ।
The Sun gives a square body, tawny eyes and thin hair.
