Sdh kho sippaka nmti ida satth jetavane viharanto eka hasapaharanaka bhikkhu rabbha kathesi. So kireko svatthivs kulaputto slittakasippe nipphatti patto. Slittakasippanti sakkharkhipanasippa vuccati. So ekadivasa dhamma sutv ssane ura datv pabbajitv upasampada labhi, na pana sikkhkmo, na paipattisdhako ahosi. So ekadivasa eka daharabhikkhu dya aciravati gantv nhyitv nadtre ahsi. Tasmi samaye dve setahas ksena gacchanti. So ta dahara ha ima pacchimahasa sakkharya akkhimhi paharitv pdamle ptemti. Itaro katha ptessasi, na sakkhissasi paharitunti ha. Itaro tihatu tvassa orato akkhi, parato akkhimhi ta paharmti. Idni pana tva asanta kathesti. Tena hi upadhrehti eka tikhiasakkhara gahetv aguliy pariyante katv tassa hasassa pacchato khipi.

Gmadrak ta rathaka ropetv kahamn brasinagaradvramle eko viapasampanno mahnigrodho atthi, tattha netv samparivretv kkaikdni datv hatthirpaka kara, assarpaka karti vadanti. So sakkhar khipitv khipitv nigrodhapaesu nnrpni dasseti, sabbni pani chiddvachiddneva ahesu.
