Verses —
Is packed up by crores of the hair-tips of the hairs grown in one day, two days, three days ..... up to seven days
cram-full, making it densitied. ||2|| te nam vālagge no aggi dahejjā, no vāto harejjā, no kucchejjā, no parividdhamsejjā, no pūtittāe havvamāgacchejja. țao nam vāsasae-vāsasae gate egamegam vālaggam avahāya jāvatienam kālenam se palle khine nirae nimmale nithie nilleve avahade visuddhe bhavai. se ttam paliovame. Fire can not burn these hair-tips; wind can not blow them; nor do they decay, nor are destroyed, nor get rotten. Now, each one of those hair-tips is taken out of the pit in every one hundred years; the time taken, to make the pit empty, clean of dust, clean of dirt, without content, clear (unsoiled) and pure (completely empty) on account
