Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

O king Bhava, be gracious to the sacrificer, for thou hast become cattle-lord of cattle; whoever has faith, saying "the gods are," be thou gracious to his bipeds [and] quadrupeds.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
