अपत्यं धर्मकार्याणि शुश्रूषा रतिर् उत्तमा । दाराअधीनस् तथा स्वर्गः पित्क़्णाम् आत्मनश् च ह ॥

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

Offspring, (the due performance of) religious rites, faithful service, highest conjugal happiness and heavenly bliss for the ancestors and oneself, depend on one's wife alone.

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
