पायसं मधुसंमिश्रं भक्ष्यभोज्यैः समन्वितम् । शेषनागं समुद्दिश्य विप्रं यस्तत्र भोजयेत् । कोटिभोज्यं कृतं तेन जायते नात्र संशयः
pāyasaṃ madhusaṃmiśraṃ bhakṣyabhojyaiḥ samanvitam | śeṣanāgaṃ samuddiśya vipraṃ yastatra bhojayet | koṭibhojyaṃ kṛtaṃ tena jāyate nātra saṃśayaḥ
جو وہاں شیش ناگ کے نام پر شہد ملا پائَس اور طرح طرح کے کھانے ساتھ رکھ کر برہمن وِپر کو کھانا کھلائے، اسے کروڑوں کو بھوجن کرانے کا پُنّیہ ملتا ہے—اس میں کوئی شک نہیں۔
