पुनः पापनाशोपायवर्णनम् ॥ ऋषिपुत्र उवाच ॥ एतच्छ्रुत्वा शुभं वाक्यं धर्मराजस्य नारदः ॥ इदं भावेन भक्त्या च पुनर्वचनमब्रवीत् ॥
punaḥ pāpanāśopāyavarṇanam || ṛṣiputra uvāca || etac chrutvā śubhaṃ vākyaṃ dharmarājasya nāradaḥ || idaṃ bhāvena bhaktyā ca punarvacanam abravīt ||
अब पाप कैसे मिट सकते हैं, उसका बयान फिर से शुरू होता है। रिशि पुत्र ने कहा, धर्मराज की यह बात सुन के नारद ने भाव और भक्ति से फिर जवाब दिया।
