Shloka 16
४/ /६ ० ८ ३४७ स राम॑ प्राउ्जलि भूत्वा बभाषे पूर्णमानस: । स्वस्ति ते भगुशार्दूल गमिष्येडहं यथागतम्,उस राक्षसने पूर्णमनोरथ हो हाथ जोड़कर परशु-रामजीसे कहा--'भृगुश्रेष्ठी आपका कल्याण हो। मैं जैसे आया था, वैसे लौट जाऊँगा। मुनिप्रवर! आपने इस नरकसे मुझे छुटकारा दिला दिया। आपका भला हो। मैं आपको प्रणाम करता हूँ। आपने मेरा बड़ा प्रिय कार्य किया है'
sa rāma prāñjali bhūtvā babhāṣe pūrṇamānasaḥ | svasti te bhṛguśārdūla gamiṣye ’haṃ yathāgatam ||
Con las palmas juntas y el corazón colmado de satisfacción, se dirigió a Rāma: «Bienaventuranza para ti, oh tigre entre los Bhṛgu. Partiré tal como vine. Oh el mejor de los sabios, me has librado de este infierno; que el bien sea tuyo. Me inclino ante ti: has cumplido para mí un propósito entrañable.»

Educational Q&A
Reverence and gratitude toward a righteous sage are presented as proper dharmic responses to receiving help—especially help that removes suffering and moral consequence. The verse highlights humility (joined palms), blessing the benefactor (svasti), and acknowledging the ethical weight of being rescued from a hellish state.
A speaker, now relieved and satisfied, respectfully addresses Rāma (Paraśurāma), blesses him, and declares he will depart as he came. He explicitly credits the sage with freeing him from ‘this hell’ and offers salutations, emphasizing that the sage has fulfilled a deeply desired aim.
