Worshipped have I deities headed by Siva and others, the great ascetics, the Bhūtagaņas and the snakes; may they all and the four cardinal points, Oh Rāghava, contribute to your welfare, who are going to the forest for a long time.
मयार्चिता देवगणाः शिवादयो महर्षयो भूतगणाः सुरोगाः। अभिप्रयातस्य वनं चिराय ते हितानि काङ्कन्तु दिशश्च राघव ॥
