One who gives conjey gives life, gives beauty, gives ease, gives strength, gives quick-wittedness. When conjey is drunk, hunger is kept at bay, thirst is dispelled, it makes the wind flow well, it cleans the intestines, it makes what remains undigested be digested. These, brahman, are the ten benefits of conjey.
