10.4.3.22

te ye ha tathā kurvanti etāni hāsya te rūpāṇi bahirdhā kurvantyatho pāpavasyasaṃ kurvanti kṣatrāya viśam pratipratinīm pratyudyāminīmāgnīdhrīye vā aśmānam pṛśnimupadadhātyatha taṃ sampaśyati kimu taṃ sampaśyannitarā na sampaśyedyenaiva nirṛtim pāpmānamapahate sa ekādaśaḥ

And, assuredly, they who do this put those forms of his outside of him, and produce confusion between the better and the worse; they make the peasantry equal and refractory to the nobility. Surely, on the Âgnîdhrîya he places the variegated stone, and that he takes into account: why, then, taking that into account, should he not take others into account? That (altar) by which they ward off Nirriti, evil, is the eleventh.

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