yat puṇyaphalam āpnoti) gāṃ dattvā) vidhivad guroḥ | tat puṇyaphalam āpnoti) bhikṣāṃ dattvā) dvijo gṛhī ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A twice-born householder gains, by giving alms, the same reward for his meritorious act which (a student) obtains for presenting, in accordance with ' the rule, a cow to his teacher.
