A sonless man obtains a son, a poor man may gain wealth.

उभे सन्ध्ये पठेत्स्तोत्रं माधवस्य महात्मनः

One should recite this hymn to the great-souled Mādhava at both twilights.

एवं तु अक्षरोक्तोऽपि भवेत्तु परिकल्पना

Thus, even if recited letter by letter, it will yield the intended result.

इति श्रीवराहपुराणे विष्णुस्तवनं नाम त्रयोदशाधिकशततमोऽध्यायः

Thus ends the one hundred thirteenth chapter, named 'The Hymn to Viṣṇu,' in the glorious Varāha Purāṇa.
