Whate'er I eat I turn to strength, and thus I grasp the Thunder-
bolt,
Rending the shoulders of that man as Indra shattered Vritra's
neck.
I drink together what I drink, even as the sea that swallows all.
Drinking the life-breath of that man, we drink that man and
swallow him.
Whate'er I eat I swallow up, even as the sea that swallows all.
Swallowing that man's vital breath, we swallow him completely
up.
