19.12

teṣāmahaṃ parāṃ tuṣṭiṃ putradāradhanādikam /
pradāsyāmyavaghātañca haniṣyāmyavamanyatām //

“Choose thou a boon; since thou hast declared my secret, I have felt thereby intense gratification in thee today, O king. And the men who shall worship me with perfumes, garlands and such like, with offerings also of meat and strong drink, and with sweetmeats accompanied with clarified butter,—and who shall worship me and Lakṣmi with songs also and the worship of brāhmans, and with lute, flute, conchs and other gladsome musical instruments;—to them I will give supreme gratification, children, wives, wealth and other blessings, and I will ward off the violent blows of scorners. Do thou then choose the choice boon that thy mind desires: my face is very gracious to thee through thy declaration of my secret name.”
