Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Gold and food destroy his longevity, land and a cow his body, a horse his eye(sight), a garment his skin, clarified butter his energy, sesamumgrains his offspring.
Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
