tasmādbrahmacāriṇa ācāryaṃ gopāyanti | gṛhānpaśūnnenno 'paharāniti tasmāttatra suguptaṃ cikīrṣedyasya ha gopanāyāmapaharanti hīyate ha tenaitena suparṇī devebhya ātmānaṃ nirakrīṇīta tasmādāhuḥ puṇyaloka ījāna iti
Wherefore the students guard their teacher, his house, and cattle, lest he should be taken from them. Let him therefore guard him (Soma) diligently in that place, for verily in whosesoever charge they carry him off, he is excluded therefrom. By means of him Suparnî redeemed herself from the gods; wherefore they say, 'He who has sacrificed shares in the world of bliss.'
