1.3.5.14

sa yāvadasya vacaḥ syāt | evamevānuvivakṣettasyaitasya paricakṣīta sāmyavānyādanavānannanuvivakṣaṃstatkarma vivṛhyeta sā paricakṣā

He (the Hotri) should endeavour to recite this (uninterruptedly) as long as his strength lasts. If, on the other hand, he were to take breath in the middle (of the verse), it would be a slight on this very (sacrifice): by reciting this (holy) composition without taking breath, that slight will be avoided.

Julius Eggeling 1882, The Satapatha-Brahmana according to the Text of the Mâdhyandina School (SBE 12, 26, 41, 43, 44)
