Kingship is indeed prosperity. He attains prosperity and reaches kingship who knows thus. They also call it the Saṃvat. By the inclined path (pravat) the gods went to the heavenly world; by the steep path (udvat) they flew up; by the level path (saṃvat) they attained it. That these sāmāns are \[employed\], they go forth to the heavenly world by the inclined path, they fly up by the steep path, and they attain it by the level path. And they have vāc as their finale. They seek speech along with the Chandomas. Speech is as if reached at this point.
