Thus addressed by me, Surabhi answered me, saying, I have no need O grandfather of boons. O sinless one, that you have been pleased with me is a great boon to me. To the illustrious Surabhi, O chief of the celestials, who said so to me, O lord of Sachi, I answered thus, O goddess, I have been highly pleased with this your freedom from cupidity and desire, and with these penances of yours, O you of beautiful face. I therefore, grant you the boon of immortality.
वरयस्व वरं देवि दातास्मीति पुरंदर।॥ वरेण भगवन् मह्यं कृतं लोकपितामह। एष एव वरो मेऽद्य यत् प्रीतोऽसि ममानघ।॥ तामेवं ब्रुवती देवीं सुरभिं त्रिदशेश्वर। प्रत्यब्रुवं यद् देवेन्द्र तन्निबोध शचीपते॥
