śrīmārkaṇḍeya uvāca:
tato gacchettu rājendra tīrthadvayamanuttamam /
dadhiskandaṃ madhuskandaṃ sarvapāpakṣayaṃkaram
dadhiskande naraḥ snātvā yastu dadyād dvije dadhi /
upatiṣṭhettatastasya saptajanmani bhārata
na vyādhirna jarā tasya na śoko naiva matsaraḥ /
daśacandraśataṃ yāvajjāyate vimale kule
madhuskande 'pi madhunā miśritānyastilāndadet /
nāsau vaivasvataṃ devaṃ paśyed vai janmasaptatim
madhunā saha sammiśraṃ piṇḍaṃ yastu pradāpayet /
tasya pautraprapautrebhyo dāridryaṃ naiva jāyate
dadhibhiḥ saha saṃmiśraṃ piṇḍaṃ yastu pradāpayet /
tasmiṃstīrthe naraḥ snātvā vidhivaddakṣiṇāmukhaḥ
pitā pitāmahaścaiva tathaiva prapitāmahaḥ /
dvādaśābdāni tuṣyanti nātra kāryā vicāraṇā
