SANS, kuch, to cry aloud, scream; such, to wail. 59. qua, to eat, bite: compare SANS. charv, to chew, bite, gnaw; chah, to bruize; khad, to eat.; GERMAN, kauen; ENG., to chew. 60. te, thou. SANS. tvam; LAT., tu. 61. quen, how? SANS. kena. Other curious resemblances between the Aztec and European languages are: 62. pepeyol, poplar. LAT., populus; ICEL., popel. LAT., oleum; ENG., oil, &c.

This identity is stated more precisely in another passage where first occurs the celebrated formula Tat tvam asi, That art Thou, or Thou art It , i.e. the human soul is the Âtman and hence there is no real distinction between souls.
