49.

‘‘Yedha maccharino loke, kadariyā paribhāsakā;

Aññesaṃ dadamānānaṃ, antarāyakarā narā.

‘‘Kīdiso tesaṃ vipāko, samparāyo ca kīdiso;

Bhagavantaṃ puṭṭhumāgamma, kathaṃ jānemu taṃ maya’’nti.

‘‘Yedha maccharino loke, kadariyā paribhāsakā;

Aññesaṃ dadamānānaṃ, antarāyakarā narā.

‘‘Nirayaṃ tiracchānayoniṃ, yamalokaṃ upapajjare;

Sace enti manussattaṃ, dalidde jāyare kule.

‘‘Coḷaṃ piṇḍo ratī khiḍḍā, yattha kicchena labbhati;

Parato āsīsare ² bālā, tampi tesaṃ na labbhati;

Diṭṭhe dhammesa vipāko, samparāye ⁴ ca duggatī’’ti.

‘‘Itihetaṃ vijānāma, aññaṃ pucchāma gotama;

Yedha laddhā manussattaṃ, vadaññū vītamaccharā.

‘‘Buddhe pasannā dhamme ca, saṅghe ca tibbagāravā;

Kīdiso tesaṃ vipāko, samparāyo ca kīdiso;

Bhagavantaṃ puṭṭhumāgamma, kathaṃ jānemu taṃ maya’’nti.

‘‘Yedha laddhā manussattaṃ, vadaññū vītamaccharā;

Buddhe pasannā dhamme ca, saṅghe ca tibbagāravā;

Ete saggā ⁶ pakāsanti, yattha te upapajjare.

‘‘Sace enti manussattaṃ, aḍḍhe ājāyare kule;

Coḷaṃ piṇḍo ratī khiḍḍā, yatthākicchena labbhati.

‘‘Parasambhatesu bhogesu, vasavattīva modare;

Diṭṭhe dhammesa vipāko, samparāye ca suggatī’’ti.
