PrU 2.2

तस्मै स होवाच । आकाशो ह वा एष देवो वायुर् अग्निर् आपः पृथिवी वाङ्मनश्चक्षु श्रोत्रं च । ते प्रकाश्याभिवदन्ति । वयम् एतद् बाणम् अवष्टभ्य विधारयामः

tasmai sa hovāca | ākāśo ha vā eṣa devo vāyur agnir āpaḥ pṛthivī vāṅmanaścakṣu śrotraṃ ca | te prakāśyābhivadanti | vayam etad bāṇam avaṣṭabhya vidhārayāmaḥ

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

He replied: "The ether is that god, the wind, fire, water, earth, speech, mind, eye, and ear. These, when they have manifested (their power), contend and say: We (each of us) support this body and keep it.
