yád rā́jāno vibhájanta iṣṭāpūrtásya ṣoḍaśám yamásyāmī́ sabhāsádaḥ |
ávis tásmāt prá muñcati dattáḥ śitipā́t svadhā́ ||1||

What the kings share among themselves—the sixteenth of what is offered-and-bestowed—yon assessors (sabhāsád) of Yama: from that the white-footed sheep, given [as] ancestral offering (svadhā́), releases.
