Samhita Patha (Devanagari)
ऊर्ध्वा यत्ते त्रेतिनी भूद्यज्ञस्य धूर्षु सद्मन् । सजूर्नावं स्वयशसं सचायोः ॥

ūrdhvā́ yát te tretínī bhūd yajñásya dhū́rṣu sádman | sajū́r nā́vaṃ sváyaśasaṃ sácāyoḥ ||
Translation
เมื่อสายสามชั้นของพระองค์ตั้งตรงขึ้น ณ ที่ประทับ บนคานเทียมแห่งยัญพิธี; แล้วพระองค์ทรงร่วมกับพลังทั้งสอง ผูกประสานเรืออันรุ่งเรืองด้วยตนเอง—ฉะนั้นหนทางแห่งการข้ามผ่านจึงบังเกิด.
