अथ ह प्राण उच्चिक्रमिषन् स यथा सुहयः पड्वीशशङ्कून् संखिदेद् एवम् इतरान् प्राणान् समखिदत् । तं हाभिसमेत्योचुः । भगवन्न् एधि । त्वं नः श्रेष्ठो ऽसि । मोत्क्रमीर् इति

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

The breath, when on the point of departing, tore up the other senses, as a horse, going to start, might tear up the pegs to which he is tethered. They came to him and said: 'Sir, be thou (our lord); thou art the best among us. Do not depart from us!'
