मा त्वा तपत् प्रिय आत्मापियन्तम् मा स्वधितिस् तन्व आ तिष्ठिपत् ते । मा ते गृध्नुर् अविशस्तातिहाय छिद्रा गात्राण्य् असिना मिथू कः ॥
mā tvā tapat priya ātmāpiyantam mā svadhitis tanva ā tiṣṭhipat te | mā te gṛdhnur aviśastātihāya chidrā gātrāṇy asinā mithū kaḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
Let not thy dear soul burn thee as thou comest, let not the hatchet linger in thy body. Let not a greedy clumsy immolator, missing the joints, mangle thy limbs unduly.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
