AVŚ 8.2.4

प्राणेन त्वा द्विपदां चतुष्पदाम् अग्निम् इव जातम् अभि सं धमामि । नमस् ते मृत्यो चक्षुषे नमः प्राणाय ते ऽकरम् ॥४॥

prāṇena tvā dvipadāṃ catuṣpadām agnim iva jātam abhi saṃ dhamāmi | namas te mṛtyo cakṣuṣe namaḥ prāṇāya te 'karam ||4||

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

I blow together upon thee with the breath of bipeds [and] quadrupeds as upon [new-] born fire; homage, O death, to thy sight, homage to thy breath have I made.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
