janmāyutaṃ sa rājā syāt tataḥ śivapuraṃ vrajet
etad āyurvrataṃ nāma sarvakāmapradāyakam //

One who washes the floor in front of Viṣṇu or Śiva for a full year and then gives away a cow with a pitcher of water, is born a king on this earth, ten thousand times, and at the end goes to the realm of Śiva. This is known as (12) Âyur-Vrata, and is the giver of all desires.—21-22.
