SrI:

Dear BhakthAs of MahA Lakshmi:

In the 33rd slOkam , Sri VenkatAdhri Kavi points out that
the recitation of Sri MahA Lakshmi's nAmAs will bless one
with Raaja Padhavi , Indhra Padham, Brahma padhavi or
any other status and position one desires .Such is Her 
boon granting munificence .

yO vakthi Devi padhamEkamapi Thvadheeyam
sarvANi tasya hrudhi bhAnthi sadhA padhAni
nithyOnnathO nrupathirEva vaSeekruthascchEth
kimkurvathE purajanA ithi ka: prayathna:

(Meaning): Oh SrI Devi ! It is enough to recite one of Your 
many nAmAs. All words ( Padhams) will appear on 
the curtain of one's mind. When the right words appear 
in one's minds , it is very easy to become a celebrated
poet . When there are so many padhams (nAmAs) , even
the mastery of one nAmA of Yours (reciting and comprehension)
would pave the way for all soubhAgyams .

The key words are : " Devi ! Ya: Thvadheeyam padham 
yEkamapi vakthi , Tasya hrudhi sarvANi padhAni sadhA
bhAnthi "

(Meaning):  Once one masters even one of Your nAmAs ,
then all the other padhams /padhavis basks under its glory , 
rest of  the  padhams readily shine in his/her mind .There are
so many padhams in this world . When one recites even one of
those padhams/nAmAs, the rest fall within easy reach of that
reciter . When Her nAmam ( SrI nAmam) stands behind us as
strength and support , all the other unnatha padhams
( lofty positions/high offices) are readily accessible.

The poet gives a comparison: 

nithyOnnathO nrupathirEva vaseekruthascchEth
kimkurvathE purajanA ithi ka: prayathna:

(Meaning): When the king of the realm is under your
influence , what is there to say about the control over
the citizens? The citizens will perform the desired kaimkaryams
since the king himself is favorably disposed . Similarly ,
when one masters the Empress of nAmAs ( SrI Naamam) ,
then all other nAmAs denoting other padhavis come under
one's chakrAthipathyam .

The poet avers : " Annai pER vasathAl soRkaL anaitthumE
vasatthilAhum ". Padham here also means Padhavi or sTAnam
like Brahma , Indhra Padhavis attained by penance over hundreds
of thousands of years . Even such lofty status becomes like fruits 
on the low branches of the tree to pick readily .

The word Padham can also be intrepreted as Padhavi like 
Indhra Padham , Parama Padham et al.
