baliṃ praśaṃsaṃti guruṃ tathānye hotārameke parivārameke ..  
prajāpaternāpi surādhipasya samāpyate cedatha yāsyati dhuvam..  
pradāya rājyaṃ dvijapuṃgavebhyaḥ saputramitraiḥ sahito rasātalam ..261..

> Some praise Bali, others the guru, some the Hotṛ priest, and some the retinue: / "\[This sacrifice is like that\] neither of Prajāpati nor of the lord of the gods; and when it concludes, he will certainly go / to Rasātala, together with his sons and friends, having bestowed the kingdom upon the best of the twice-born."
