देवानां प्रतिपत्तिश्च सत्या साधुमता सदा । सा तु दुःखार्णवं प्राप्य नः स्यादर्चयतां भृशम्॥५-१९२-११॥
Proper observance toward the gods is ever true and approved by the virtuous; therefore, since we have met an ocean of suffering, let it not be so for us—let us worship with earnestness.

दैवतानि च सर्वाणि पूज्यन्तां भूरिदक्षिणैः । अग्नयश्चापि हूयन्तां दाशार्णप्रतिषेधने॥५-१९२-१२॥
Let all the deities be honored with abundant gifts, and let the sacrificial fires too be kindled, to ward off the opposition of the Daśārṇa.

O lord, contemplate in your mind a withdrawal without battle; by the favor of the deities, all this will come to pass.

दैवं हि मानुषोपेतं भृशं सिध्यति पार्थिव । परस्परविरोधात्तु नानयोः सिद्धिरस्ति वै॥५-१९२-१५॥
For destiny, when joined with human endeavor, succeeds greatly, O king; but when the two stand in mutual opposition, success for neither is indeed possible.
