2. Saṅkhacariyā

11.

‘‘Punāparaṃ yadā homi, brāhmaṇo saṅkhasavhayo;

Mahāsamuddaṃ taritukāmo, upagacchāmi paṭṭanaṃ.

12.

‘‘Tatthaddasaṃ paṭipathe, sayambhuṃ aparājitaṃ;

Kantāraddhānaṃ paṭipannaṃ ², tattāya kaṭhinabhūmiyā.

13.

‘‘Tamahaṃ paṭipathe disvā, imamatthaṃ vicintayiṃ;

‘Idaṃ khettaṃ anuppattaṃ, puññakāmassa jantuno.

14.

‘‘‘Yathā kassako puriso, khettaṃ disvā mahāgamaṃ;

Tattha bījaṃ na ropeti, na so dhaññena atthiko.

15.

‘‘‘Evamevāhaṃ puññakāmo, disvā khettavaruttamaṃ;

Yadi tattha kāraṃ na karomi, nāhaṃ puññena atthiko.

16.

‘‘‘Yathā amacco muddikāmo, rañño antepure jane;

Na deti tesaṃ dhanadhaññaṃ, muddito parihāyati.

17.

‘‘‘Evamevāhaṃ puññakāmo, vipulaṃ disvāna dakkhiṇaṃ;

Yadi tassa dānaṃ na dadāmi, parihāyissāmi puññato’.

18.

‘‘Evāhaṃ cintayitvāna, orohitvā upāhanā;

Tassa pādāni vanditvā, adāsiṃ chattupāhanaṃ.

19.

‘‘Tenevāhaṃ sataguṇato, sukhumālo sukhedhito;

Api ca dānaṃ paripūrento, evaṃ tassa adāsaha’’nti.

Saṅkhacariyaṃ dutiyaṃ.
