Sūta replied: (Partially defective text) A man who joyfully feeds Brāhmaṇas in a single row becomes free from sin whether the guests have been employed (i.e. invited) or not employed. Through that single row (of the fed Brāhmaṇas) he removes the sin (?) (If it is otherwise) he incurs sin immediately and all his good deeds such as Iṣṭāpūrta, perish.
