1.4.2
devā vai mṛtyor bibhyatas trayīṃ vidyāṃ prāviśan \
te chandobhir acchādayan \
yad ebhir acchādayaṃs tac chandasāṃ chandastvam \\104.2\
2. Verily, the gods, when they were afraid of death, took
refuge in the threefold knowledge [i.e. the three Vedas]. They covered (acchādayan) themselves with meters. Because they covered themselves with these, therefore the meters are called chandas.
