सयणिज्जाओ अब्भुढेइ । Next day, the night having ended, at dawn, when blossomed the soft lotuses and nymphaeas; when rose the sun, red like the asoka, the kim suka, the bill of the parrot, the (red) half of guñja fruit; [like the feet and eyes of the dove, the scarlet eyes of the cuckoo, a heap of jabā flowers, and more red than vermillion]; the delight of lotuses, and burning in its own thousand rays: when the sun rose at the right time, (when darkness
