“Yānakāro pure āsiṃ, dārukamme susikkhito;
candanaṃ phalakaṃ katvā, adāsiṃ lokabandhuno.
“Pabhāsati idaṃ byamhaṃ, suvaṇṇassa sunimmitaṃ;
hatthiyānaṃ assayānaṃ, dibbayānaṃ upaṭṭhitaṃ.
“Pāsādā sivikā ceva, nibbattanti yadicchakaṃ;
akkhubbhaṃ ratanaṃ mayhaṃ, phalakassa idaṃ phalaṃ.
“Ekanavutito kappe, phalakaṃ yamahaṃ dadiṃ;
duggati nābhijānāmi, phalakassa idaṃ phalaṃ.
“Sattapaññāsakappamhi, caturo nimmitāvhayā;
sattaratanasampannā, cakkavattī mahabbalā.
“Kilesā jhāpitā mayhaṃ…pe… kataṃ buddhassa sāsanan”ti;

arahattaṃ pana patvā udānavasena attano paṭipattiṃ kathento–

97. “hitvā satapalaṃ kaṃsaṃ, sovaṇṇaṃ satarājikaṃ;

aggahiṃ mattikāpattaṃ, idaṃ dutiyābhisecanan”ti.– Gāthaṃ abhāsi.

Tattha hitvāti pariccajitvā. Satapalanti sataṃ palāni yassa, taṃ satapalaparimāṇaṃ. Kaṃsanti thālaṃ. Sovaṇṇanti suvaṇṇamayaṃ. Satarājikanti bhittivicittatāya ca anekarūparājicittatāya ca anekalekhāyuttaṃ. Aggahiṃ mattikāpattanti evarūpe mahārahe bhājane pubbe bhuñjitvā buddhānaṃ ovādaṃ karonto “idānāhaṃ taṃ chaḍḍetvā mattikāmayapattaṃ aggahesiṃ aho, sādhu, mayā kataṃ ariyavataṃ anuṭhitan”ti bhājanakittanāpadesena rajjapariccāgaṃ pabbajjūpagamanañca anumodanto vadati.
