अभिणंद-माण अभिसंथुणमाणा य एवं वयासी : (Having done so), in the first fortnight of the first month of summer, on the eighth day of the dark half of Caitra, towards the latter part of the day, having ascended a palanquin named Sudarsanā, he set out through the city of Vinită and arrived outside the city in the park named Siddhārthavana under the most excellent aśoka tree. He was followed on the way by groups of men, gods and asuras, and was surrounded by conch-blowers, bearers of arms, priests, courtiers, carrier-men, heralds, bards, bell-bearers, and these showered on him praise and hymns with 108 words high, kind, dear, pleasant, noble, helpful, auspicious, fortunate, well-meaning, measured-sweet-decent, heart-appealing, heart-pleasing, grave and ever-fresh.
