8.7.4.5

sa vai bhūrbhuvaḥ svariti | etāsu vyāhṛtiṣu gāyati bhūriti vā ayaṃ loko bhuva ityantarikṣalokaḥ svarityasau loka eṣvevaitallokeṣu rasamupajīvanaṃ dadhāti

He sings (the tunes) on the (mystic) words 'Bhûs, Bhuvas, Svar';--bhûs (earth), doubtless, is this world, bhuvas is the air-world, and svar (light) is yonder world: into these worlds he thereby lays sap, the means of subsistence.

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