5. Mahiṃsarājacariyā

37.

‘‘Punāparaṃ yadā homi, mahiṃso pavanacārako;

Pavaḍḍhakāyo balavā, mahanto bhīmadassano.

38.

‘‘Pabbhāre giridugge ² ca, rukkhamūle dakāsaye;

Hotettha ṭhānaṃ mahiṃsānaṃ, koci koci tahiṃ tahiṃ.

39.

‘‘Vicaranto brahāraññe, ṭhānaṃ addasa bhaddakaṃ;

Taṃ ṭhānaṃ upagantvāna, tiṭṭhāmi ca sayāmi ca.

40.

‘‘Athettha kapimāgantvā, pāpo anariyo lahu;

Khandhe nalāṭe bhamuke, mutteti ohanetitaṃ.

41.

‘‘Sakimpi divasaṃ dutiyaṃ, tatiyaṃ catutthampi ca;

Dūseti maṃ sabbakālaṃ, tena homi upadduto.

42.

‘‘Mamaṃ upaddutaṃ disvā, yakkho maṃ idamabravi;

‘Nāsehetaṃ chavaṃ pāpaṃ, siṅgehi ca khurehi ca’.

43.

‘‘Evaṃ vutte tadā yakkhe, ahaṃ taṃ idamabraviṃ;

‘Kiṃ tvaṃ makkhesi kuṇapena, pāpena anariyena maṃ.

44.

‘‘‘Yadihaṃ tassa pakuppeyyaṃ, tato hīnataro bhave;

Sīlañca me pabhijjeyya, viññū ca garaheyyu maṃ.

45.

‘‘‘Hīḷitā jīvitā vāpi, parisuddhena mataṃ varaṃ;

Kyāhaṃ jīvitahetūpi, kāhāmiṃ paraheṭhanaṃ’.

46.

‘‘Mamevāyaṃ maññamāno, aññepevaṃ karissati;

Teva tassa vadhissanti, sā me mutti bhavissati.

47.

‘‘Hīnamajjhimaukkaṭṭhe, sahanto avamānitaṃ;

Evaṃ labhati sappañño, manasā yathā patthita’’nti.

Mahiṃsarājacariyaṃ pañcamaṃ.
