Taittiriyabrahmana 3.10.8

Sing to the wise purifying one! / Like a great stream, the plant flows beyond. / The serpent indeed glides out of its worn-out skin; / like a steed playing, the tawny stallion sped along. / You are taken with a support; I take you pleasing to Death. / This is your womb; for Death, you! / Drive away death; drive away hunger; / strike away the curse from here; / then bring to us, O Agni, / a thousandfold increase of wealth!

Those thousands and myriads of fetters of yours, / O Death, for slaying mortal man: / all of them by the mysterious power of sacrifice / we unbind through worship. / You are the portion, the immortal portion. / Of you, drunk by Death, possessing immortality, / made pleasant, sweet, / invited, I consume [the share] invited. / Charming, overpowering, the banner of sacrifices is Speech. / O So-and-so, come!

Blind, watchful, O prāṇa, / O So-and-so, come! / Deaf, maker of cries, O apāna, / O So-and-so, come! / Handless thrower, O eye, / O So-and-so, come! / Footless runner, O mind, / O So-and-so, come! / O poet, of inspired mind, O ear, / O So-and-so, come!

Fair-handed, well-clad, / Vigor by name are you, immortal among mortals. / Knowing you as such, I [say]: / O So-and-so, come! / Agni is supported in my speech; / speech in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Vāyu is supported in my out-breath;

the out-breath in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Sūrya is supported in my eye; / the eye in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The moon is supported in my mind;

the mind in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The directions are supported in my ear; / the ear in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The waters are supported in my semen;

the semen in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The earth is supported in my body; / the body in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The plants and trees are supported in my body hair;

the body hair in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Indra is supported in my strength; / the strength in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Parjanya is supported in my head;

the head in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Īśāna is supported in my anger; / anger in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / The self is supported in my self;

the self in the heart; / the heart in me; / I in the immortal; / the immortal in the sacred word. / Again has my self, again has my lifespan returned; / again has my breath, again has my intent returned. / May Vaiśvānara, growing strong through his rays, / stand within as guardian of immortality.
