चकार तस्योषसि च पाकान्ते शालयो द्विजाः । लूयन्ते तेन मुनिना मध्याह्ने पच्यते तथा । सर्वातिथ्यमसौ विप्रो ब्राह्मणेभ्यो ददात्यलम् ॥ ७१.१४ ॥
cakāra tasyōṣasi ca pākānte śālayo dvijāḥ | lūyante tena muninā madhyāhne pacyate tathā | sarvātithyam asau vipro brāhmaṇebhyo dadāty alam || 71.14 ||
พราหมณ์ผู้นั้นยามรุ่งอรุณจัดการนาข้าว ครั้นสุกงอมแล้วฤๅษีก็ให้เหล่าทวิชะเกี่ยวเก็บ และยามเที่ยงก็มีการหุงหาอาหาร เขาพราหมณ์นั้นบำเพ็ญอาติเถยธรรมต้อนรับแขกทุกผู้ และถวายทานแก่พราหมณ์ทั้งหลายอย่างเพียงพอ
