The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 1 · Khaṇḍa 4

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 1.4.3

तान् उ तत्र मृत्युर् यथा मत्स्यम् उदके परिपश्येद् एवं पर्यपश्यद् ऋचि साम्नि यजुषि ।
ते नु वित्त्वोर्ध्वा ऋचः साम्नो यजुषः स्वरम् एव प्राविशन् ॥

tān u tatra mṛtyur yathā matsyam udake paripaśyed evaṃ paryapaśyad ṛci sāmni yajuṣi ।
te nu vittvordhvā ṛcaḥ sāmno yajuṣaḥ svaram eva prāviśan ॥

Then, as a fisherman might observe a fish in the water, Death observed the Devas in the Rik, Yagus, and Sâman-(sacrifices). And the Devas seeing this, rose from the Rik, Yagus, and Sâman-sacrifices, and entered the Svara, i.e. the Om (they meditated on the Om).
