गो ऽश्वम् इह महिमेत्य् आचक्षते हस्तिहिरण्यं दासभार्यं क्षेत्राण्य् आयतनानीति । नाहम् एवं ब्रवीमि । ब्रवीमीति होवाच । अन्यो ह्य् अन्यस्मिन् प्रतिष्ठित इति

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

'In the world they call cows and horses, elephants and gold, slaves, wives, fields and houses greatness. I do not mean this,' thus he spoke; 'for in that case one being (the possessor) rests in something else, (but the Infinite cannot rest in something different from itself.)
