Take in to account the lord of the night, lord of the day at the end of the day, Thus he told this divine armour which is wonderful. 13.Ya padenithyam mevedam kavacham prayatho nara, Thasyasu vipadho devi nasyanthi ripi samgatha.

In the end he would attain the feet of Gopala , Oh goddess, He who reads it either at dawn, dusk and noon or one of those times, Would be protected always by the four armed consort of Lakshmi . Oh Goddess , if one is ignorant of this armour even if one worships Gopala, Or chants , does fire sacrifices and performs worship it would all be in vain And he would reach his end by the wound caused by a weapon. Ithi Sri Narada Pancha Thanthre Sri Gopala Kavacham sampoornam Thus ends the armour of Gopala occurring in Narada Pancha Thanthra
