‘Having made ink from the black, white, and red hair of a black [antelope], he should cause him to taste [it] four times in this fourfold mixture,’ says Māṇḍūkeya: ‘Bhūḥ! I place the Ṛgveda in you, N.N., svāhā! Bhuvaḥ! I place the Yajurveda in you, N.N., svāhā! Svaḥ! I place the Sāmaveda in you, N.N., svāhā! Bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ! I place the dialogue hymns, epic legends, ancient lore, and all the Vedas in you, N.N., svāhā!’
