11.1.2.12
martyā ha vā agre devā āsuḥ sa yadaiva te saṃvatsaramāpurathāmṛtā āsuḥ sarvaṃ vai saṃvatsaraḥ sarvaṃ vā akṣayyameteno hāsyākṣayyaṃ sukṛtam bhavatyakṣayyo lokaḥ
Now, indeed, the gods were at first mortal; and only when they had gained the year they were immortal; for the year is everything, and the imperishable means everything: thereby then accrues to him imperishable merit, the imperishable world.
