Byasanaṃ me anuppattaṃ, ñātibhedo pure ahu.

‘‘Pabbajjaṃ upagantvāna, byasanupasamāyahaṃ;

Sattāhābhirato tattha, satthusāsanakamyatā.

35.

‘‘Ekanavutito kappe, yamahaṃ pabbajiṃ tadā;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi, pabbajjāya idaṃ phalaṃ.

36.

‘‘Sattasaṭṭhimhito kappe, satta āsuṃ mahīpatī;

Sunikkhamāti ñāyanti, cakkavattī mahabbalā.

37.

‘‘Paṭisambhidā catasso…pe… kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ’’.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā sattāhapabbajito thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Sattāhapabbajitattherassāpadānaṃ aṭṭhamaṃ.
