agnidāhamṛtā ye vai nāgnidāhaśca yeṣu vai | te sarve tṛptimāyāṃti tīrthe kāpiladhārike

Translation

Lahat ng namatay sa pagkasunog, at gayundin yaong hindi man lamang naipagkaloob ang pagsusunog sa apoy bilang kremasyon—silang lahat ay dumarating sa kasiyahan kapag ang mga handog ay inialay sa tīrtha ng Kapiladhārikā.
