12.374.1
आश्चर्यं नात्र संदेहः सुप्रीतोस्मि भुजङ्गम ।
अन्वर्थोपगतैर्वाक्यैः पन्थानं चास्मि दर्शितः ॥ १२.३७४.१ ॥
This is a marvel, there is no doubt. O serpent, I am greatly pleased, for with meaningful words you have shown me the path.

May it go well with you; I shall now go. O good one, best of serpents, I am worthy to be remembered by you for the sending and the directing.

अनुक्त्वा हृद्गतं कार्यं क्वेदानीं प्रस्थितो भवान् ।
उच्यतां द्विज यत्कार्यं यदर्थं त्वमिहागतः ॥ १२.३७४.३ ॥
Without speaking the matter in your heart, where are you going now? O twice-born, let the matter be told for which you have come here.

न हि मां केवलं दृष्ट्वा त्यक्त्वा प्रणयवानिह ।
गन्तुमर्हसि विप्रर्षे वृक्षमूलगतो यथा ॥ १२.३७४.५ ॥
Merely having seen me, and full of affection, it is not right for you to leave here, O sage among brahmins, as one who has rested at a tree's root and then goes on.
12.374.6
त्वयि चाहं द्विजश्रेष्ठ भवान्मयि न संशयः ।
लोकोऽयं भवतः सर्वः का चिन्ता मयि तेऽनघ ॥ १२.३७४.६ ॥
I am in you and you are in me, there is no doubt, O best of brahmins. This whole world is yours. O faultless one, what worry do you have concerning me?
12.374.7
एवमेतन्महाप्राज्ञ विदितात्मन्भुजङ्गम ।
नातिरिक्तास्त्वया देवाः सर्वथैव यथातथम् ॥ १२.३७४.७ ॥
So it is, O very wise one, O knower of the self, O serpent. The gods are in no way superior to you; they are just as they truly are.

स एव त्वं स एवाहं योऽहं स तु भवानपि ।
अहं भवांश्च भूतानि सर्वे यत्र गताः सदा ॥ १२.३७४.८ ॥
You are that one, and I am that one; what I am, you too are. I, you, and all beings are where they have always gone.
12.374.9
आसीत्तु मे भोगिपते संशयः पुण्यरसंचये ।
सोहमुञ्छव्रतं साधो चरिष्याम्यर्थसाधनम्
एष मे निश्चयः साधो कृतं कारणमुत्तमम् ।
आमन्त्रयामि भद्रं ते कृतार्थोऽस्मि भुजङ्गम ॥ १२.३७४.९ ॥
O lord of serpents, I had doubt about the gathering of the essence of merit. Therefore, O good one, I will practise the gleaning vow, the means of accomplishing my aim. O good one, this is my resolve; this is the supreme reason. I take my leave; may good befall you, O serpent, for I am fulfilled in my purpose.
