स चाभिकामं समवाप्य भूमौ स्वर्गं प्रयात्येव सुरार्चितांघ्रिः । एतन्मया ते कथितं सुनेत्रे श्रीसिद्धनाथस्य चरित्रयुक्तम् । कामाक्षमाहात्म्यमघघ्नमाद्यं भूयोऽपि किं ते प्रवदामि भद्रे ॥ २७ ॥

தேவர்களாலும் வணங்கப்படும் திருவடிகளை உடைய அவர், இப்பூமியில் விரும்பிய பயனை அடைந்து நிச்சயமாகச் சுவர்க்கம் செல்கிறார். ஓ சுநேத்ரே, ஸ்ரீ சித்தநாதனின் சரிதத்துடன் கூடிய, பாபநாசகமான ஆதிக் காமாக்ஷியின் மஹாத்மியத்தை நான் உனக்குச் சொன்னேன்; ஓ பத்திரே, இன்னும் என்ன சொல்வேன்?
