'With nineteen they sang praises,'--there are ten fingers, and nine vital airs: it is with these they then sang praises;--'the Sûdra and Ârya were created,'--the Sûdra and Ârya indeed were now created;--'the day and night were the rulers!'--the day and night indeed were now the rulers.

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