Verse 13.105.12

गौतम उवाच ।
त्वामेव गावोऽभि भवन्तु राजन्दास्यः सनिष्का विविधं च रत्नम् ।
अन्यच्च वित्तं विविधं नरेन्द्र किं ब्राह्मणस्येह धनेन कृत्यम् ॥ १२ ॥

...every malady, observes a fast, verily acquires, at every step the merits that attach to Sacrifices. Such a man ascends to Heaven on a car drawn by swans. Endued with puissance, he enjoys every kind of happiness in heaven for a hundred years....
