10.5.1.4

sā yā sā vāgasau sa ādityaḥ sa eṣa mṛtyustadyakiṃ cārvācīnamādityātsarvaṃ tanmṛtyunāptaṃ sa yo hainamato'rvācīnaṃ cinute mṛtyunā hainaṃ sa āptaṃ cinute mṛtyave ha sa ātmānamapidadhātyatha ya enamata ūrdhvaṃ cinute sa punarmṛtyumapajayati vidyayā ha vā asyaiṣo'ta ūrdhvaṃ cito bhavati

Now, this speech is yonder sun, and this (Agni, the Fire-altar) is Death: hence whatsoever is on this side of the sun all that is field by Death; and he who builds it (the Fire-altar) on this side thereof, builds it as one held by Death, and he surrenders his own self unto Death; but he who builds it thereabove, conquers recurring Death, for by his knowledge that (altar) of his is built thereabove.
