पुमा॑ँ एनं तनुत॒ उत्कृ॑णत्ति॒ पुमा॒न्वि त॑त्ने॒ अधि॒ नाके॑ अ॒स्मिन् । इ॒मे म॒यूखा॒ उप॑ सेदुरू॒ सदः॒ सामा॑नि चक्रु॒स्तस॑रा॒ण्योत॑वे
pumām̐ enaṃ tanuta utkṛṇatti pumānvi tatne adhi nāke asmin ime mayūkhā upa sedurū sadaḥ sāmāni cakrustasarāṇyotave
A man stretches forth this body; that man reaches beyond it and stands over it. These foolish ones sang the hymns of Sāman; they made chariots for the forest-dwelling rites.
The first man spreads out this (web), the first man rolls it up, he spread it above in this heaven; thesehis rays have sat down on the seat (of sacrifice), they have made the prayers serve as shuttles for weaving.
The Man extends it and the Man unbinds it: even to this vault of heaven hath he outspun, it. These pegs are fastened to the seat of worship: they made the Sama-hymns their weaving shuttles.
