Chāndogya Upaniṣad 3.9.1

ChU 3.9.1

अथ यच् चतुर्थम् अमृतं तन् मरुत उपजीवन्ति सोमेन मुखेन । न वै देवा अश्नन्ति न पिबन्ति । एतद् एवामृतं दृष्ट्वा तृप्यन्ति

atha yac caturtham amṛtaṃ tan maruta upajīvanti somena mukhena | na vai devā aśnanti na pibanti | etad evāmṛtaṃ dṛṣṭvā tṛpyanti

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

On the fourth of these nectars the Maruts live, with Soma at their head. True, the Devas do not eat or drink, but they enjoy by seeing the nectar.
