त्रयं वा इदं नाम रूपं कर्म । तेषां नाम्नां वाग् इत्य् एतद् एषाम् उक्थम् । अतो हि सर्वाणि नामान्य् उत्तिष्ठन्ति । एतद् एषां साम । एतद् धि सर्वैर् नामभिः समम् । एतद् एषां ब्रह्म । एतद् धि सर्वाणि नामानि बिभर्ति

trayaṃ vā idaṃ nāma rūpaṃ karma | teṣāṃ nāmnāṃ vāg ity etad eṣām uktham | ato hi sarvāṇi nāmāny uttiṣṭhanti | etad eṣāṃ sāma | etad dhi sarvair nāmabhiḥ samam | etad eṣāṃ brahma | etad dhi sarvāṇi nāmāni bibharti

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

Verily this is a triad, name, form, and work. Of these names, that which is called Speech is the Uktha (hymn, supposed to mean also origin), for from it all names arise. It is their Saman (song, supposed to mean also sameness), for it is the same as all names. It is their Brahman (prayer, supposed to mean also support), for it supports all names.
