Dear VedhAbhimAnis:
 
70th & 71st Mantrams of the 17th anuvAkam : Introduction:
 
The 17th anuvAkam has mantrams 70 and 71.Through these two mantrams, the eleven RudrAs (EkAdsa RudrAs) and their wives are saluted by name .
 
UpAsakan prays for life in their lOkams, while shining there with his tejas with their anugrahams.
 
Just as Sooryan exists in the form of eleven Rudrans and their corresponding pathnees ( wives) , Vaayu also exists in that form of eleven Rudra dampathees.

Combined Meanings of the 70th and the 71st Mantrams of the 17th anuvAkam
 
Here, the eleven Vaayus appearing in the
form of the eleven Rudrans are listed:
PrabhrAjamAnan ,VyavadhAnan, Vaasuki
Vaidhyutan , Rajatan , SyAman , Kapilan,AtilOhitan Urdhvan,Avapatantan and Vaidhyutan . These are the 11 Rudhra roopams of Vaayu .
 
The eleven RudhrANis are next invoked:
PrabhrAjamAni , VyavadhAti , Vaasuki-Vaidhyutee , RajatA , ParushA, SyAmA,
KapilA,AtilOhitee, UrdhvA , Avapatantee and Vaidhyutee. These are the eleven Rudra Patnees. 
 
The UpAsakan's prayer is to live in the above eleven worlds with his own tEjas.
The prayer ends with:"Om BhUrbhuvas-sva:, roopANi vO mithunam mAnO Mithanagum reeDvam."This portion of the mantram reminds us that ParamAtma (the Meaning of OmkAram) Himself appears as BhU , Bhuvar and Svarga lOkams.The prayer continues with the appeal not to be seperated as mithunam and stay as the mithunam like the eleven
Rudhrans and their Pathnees.

Summary of the meaning of the 72nd Mantram
 
This mantram is about the eight kinds of Agni Moorthys. The 8 directions in which they reside are stated:(1) Agni in the Eastern direction (2)JaatavEdhas in the South East( Clockwise from East),
(3) SahOjas in the South (4) Ajira-prabhavan in the South West
