एतद् ध स्म वै तद् विद्वान् आह महिदास ऐतरेयः । स किं म एतद् उपतपसि यो ऽहम् अनेन न प्रेष्याम् इति । स ह षोडशं वर्षशतम् अजीवत् । प्र ह षोडशं वर्षशतं जीवति य एवं वेद

etad dha sma vai tad vidvān āha mahidāsa aitareyaḥ | sa kiṃ ma etad upatapasi yo 'ham anena na preṣyām iti | sa ha ṣoḍaśaṃ varṣaśatam ajīvat | pra ha ṣoḍaśaṃ varṣaśataṃ jīvati ya evaṃ veda

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

Mahidâsa Aitareya (the son of Itarâ), who knew this, said (addressing a disease): 'Why dost thou afflict me, as I shall not die by it?' He lived a hundred and sixteen years (i.e. 24+44+48). He, too, who knows this lives on to a hundred and sixteen years.
