तेनोक्तं वाडवाः सर्वे दर्शयध्वं हि मारुतिम् । यस्याभिज्ञानमात्रेण स्थितिं पूर्वां ददाम्यहम्
tenoktaṃ vāḍavāḥ sarve darśayadhvaṃ hi mārutim | yasyābhijñānamātreṇa sthitiṃ pūrvāṃ dadāmyaham
Da wurde gesprochen: „Ihr alle, o Vāḍavas, zeigt wahrlich Māruti; denn schon durch das bloße Erkennen seiner werde ich euch den früheren Zustand wiedergeben.“
