Wide is this thy treasury, wealth-containing, wherein are lodged within all these worlds. Be gracious unto us, O Lord of creatures; homage be to thee. Far hence—away—let the howlers go, the assailants, the dogs; away depart the evil-yelpers, the loose-haired.
汝のこの宝蔵は広大にして、富を蔵す。その内に、これら一切の世界が宿る。われらを憐れみたまえ、衆生の主（Paśupati）よ。汝に敬礼す。嚎り立てる者ども、襲いかかる者ども、犬どもは遠くへ――遠くへ去れ。悪しき声で吠える者、髪を乱した者も遠くへ去れ。

Devata: Rudra (Paśupati), with apotropaic expulsion of inauspicious beings/portents
Chandas: Mixed; predominantly Triṣṭubh/Jagatī-like cadence in this section (edition-dependent metrical analysis).
