yad vedāgamavedibhir nigaditaṃ sākṣād ihāyur nṛṇāṃ
yad vaidyais tu rasāyanāya kathitaṃ sadyo jarānāśanam /
yat sārasvatakalpakānti matimatproktaṃ dhiyaḥ siddhaye
tatraikāyanaketakadyuticayaprāyaṃ mudā syād ghṛtam // 14 //

That which is proclaimed by knowers of the Vedas and Āgamas as longevity itself for men in this world, / that which is stated by physicians as a rejuvenator that immediately destroys old age, / and that which is declared by the wise as a means having the brilliance of the Sarasvatī-procedure to accomplish intellect— / on that ghee one should joyfully rely, radiant as an array of pandanus flowers.
