āpo vā arkastadyadapām̐ śara āsīttatsamahanyata sā pṛthivyabhavattasyāmaśrāmyattasya śrāntasya taptasya tejo raso niravartatāgniḥ
Verily water is arka. And what was there as the froth of the water, that was hardened, and became the earth. On that earth he (Death) rested, and from him, thus resting and heated, Agni (Virâg) proceeded, full of light.
