एवं तद्भविता सर्वं यन्मयोक्तं द्विजोत्तमाः । यात दारुवनं विप्राः सर्वे यूयं तपोधनाः । मया सर्वे समादिष्टा यात दारुवनं द्विजाः
evaṃ tadbhavitā sarvaṃ yanmayoktaṃ dvijottamāḥ | yāta dāruvanaṃ viprāḥ sarve yūyaṃ tapodhanāḥ | mayā sarve samādiṣṭā yāta dāruvanaṃ dvijāḥ
So wird alles geschehen, wie ich es gesagt habe, o Beste der Zweifachgeborenen. Geht nach Dāruvana, o Brāhmaṇas, ihr alle, deren Reichtum Tapas ist. Euch allen habe ich geboten: Geht nach Dāruvana, o Zweifachgeborene.
