Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Come ye, obstructing the track of death, assuming further on a longer life-time; sitting in your station, thrust ye [away] death; then may we, living, speak to the council.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
