Meaning
Sampad, wealth, is a word that a prince knows well. Vasiṣṭha offers him another treasury. The commentary lists them as all the riches that begin with humility. Note how verse 8 of the last sarga promised a place where there is no destruction, and the same phrase is used here of these qualities. What one has become cannot be taken, as lands can.
