Satānaṃ pañcakkhattuñca, cakkavattī ahosahaṃ.

23.

‘‘Padesarajjaṃ vipulaṃ, gaṇanāto asaṅkhiyaṃ;

Anubhomi sakaṃ kammaṃ, pubbe sukatamattano.

24.

‘‘Dvenavute ito kappe, yaṃ kammamakariṃ tadā;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi, dhajadānassidaṃ phalaṃ.

25.

‘‘Icchamāno cahaṃ ajja, sakānanaṃ sapabbataṃ;

Khomadussena chādeyyaṃ, tadā mayhaṃ kate phalaṃ.
