‘‘Anekavaṇṇaṃ darasokanāsanaṃ, vimānamāruyha anekacittaṃ;

Parivārito accharāsaṅgaṇena, sunimmito bhūtapatīva modasi.

1200.

‘‘Samassamo natthi kuto panuttaro ², yasena puññena ca iddhiyā ca;

Sabbe ca devā tidasagaṇā samecca, taṃ taṃ namassanti sasiṃva devā;

Imā ca te accharāyo samantato, naccanti gāyanti pamodayanti.

1201.

‘‘Deviddhipattosi mahānubhāvo, manussabhūto kimakāsi puññaṃ;

Kenāsi evaṃ jalitānubhāvo, vaṇṇo ca te sabbadisā pabhāsatī’’ti.

1202.

So devaputto attamano…pe… yassa kammassidaṃ phalaṃ.

‘‘Ahaṃ bhadante ahuvāsi pubbe, sumedhanāmassa jinassa sāvako;

Puthujjano ananubodhohamasmi ⁵, so satta vassāni paribbajissahaṃ ⁶.

1204.

‘‘Sohaṃ sumedhassa jinassa satthuno, parinibbutassoghatiṇṇassa tādino;

Ratanuccayaṃ hemajālena channaṃ, vanditvā thūpasmiṃ manaṃ pasādayiṃ.

1205.

‘‘Na māsi dānaṃ na ca matthi dātuṃ, pare ca kho tattha samādapesiṃ;

Pūjetha naṃ pūjanīyassa ⁸ dhātuṃ, evaṃ kira saggamito gamissatha.

1206.

‘‘Tadeva kammaṃ kusalaṃ kataṃ mayā, sukhañca dibbaṃ anubhomi attanā;

Modāmahaṃ tidasagaṇassa majjhe, na tassa puññassa khayampi ajjhaga’’nti.

Anekavaṇṇavimānaṃ aṭṭhamaṃ.
