मुरासुराधीशमहीशनम्यं
प्रणम्य सम्यग्जिनराजवीरं। सुबोधमर्थ दिनकृत्यसत्कं
लिखाम्यबुद्धिप्रतिबोधनाय ॥ १ पढमं नाणं तओ दया एवं चिइ सव्वसंजुए।
अन्नाणी किं काही किंवा नाही छेय पावयं ॥ २
पहिलउ ज्ञानुतनु पाछइ दया जीवं विषइ कृपा एवं इणि क्रमि चिट्टइ । किसउ अर्घ रहइ । कउण रहइ गुणश्रेणि इसउ आ पहे जाणिवउ । कउण माहिं सबसंजए ।। संजओ दुविहो सबसंजओ साह देससंजओ साव
ओ। सव्वसंजतही माहि देससंजतही माहि। अन्नाणी किं काही किंवा नाही छेय पावयं वि । अज्ञानु किं करिष्यति । किं सउ करिसिहि । किंवा ज्ञास्यति । अथवा किसउ जाणिसिइ । छेउ पुण्यु । पावयं पापु । इति ।
सुपुणि ज्ञानु योग्य रहई दीजइ । अयोग्य रहन दीजइ । जोग्य शुश्रावक • अह माहि एकवीस गुण हुयई॥
