ता अस्य वर्णम् आयुवो नेष्टुः सचन्त धेनवः । कुवित् तिसृभ्य आ वरं स्वसारो या इदं ययुः ॥

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

Clothing them in his hues, the kine of him the Leader wait on him. Is he not better than the Three, the Sisters who have come to us?
