100 The Victor's Penance 23. esa vihi aņukkanto, māheņeņa maimayā; apadinnena virena, käsaveņa mahesiņā.
- tti bemi. (23) This course, indeed, was followed,
By the Māhana wise; The Hero, unaffected, The Kāsava, the Seer Great.
- Thus do I say.
1. cariyāsanāim sejjão, egaijão jāõ buiyao;
āikkha tăim sayanāsaņāim jāim sevittha se mahāvīre. (1) Of the accustomed seats and abodes,
Reported as they are, Those abodes and seats please relate That the Great Hero did use.
2. avesana-sabhā-pavāsu, panijasälāsu egavā vāso;
aduvā paliyathanesu, palālapuñjesu egayā vāso.
(2) At workshops, assembly halls, water-sheds,
And shops, sometimes He lodged; Or at manufactories And under straw-sheds sometimes He dwelt.
3. ägantāre ārāmāgāre, nagare vi egayā rāso;
susāně sunnagāre vā, rukkhamūle vi egajā vāso. (3) At travellers' halls, garden-houses,
And towns sometimes He lodged; At cemetery or deserted house, And at the foot of trees, sometimes He dwelt.
4. etehim muni sayanehim, samanc āsi patclasa vase;
rāindiyam pi jayamāne, appamatte samähie jhäi. (4) At such abodes, the Sage,
The Ascetic, some thirteen years spent; Day and night careful, And vigilant, meditating, quiet and calm.
5. niddam pi no pagāmãe, sevai bhagayam 11thāe;
jag gävai ya appāņam, isim sāiyāsī apaļinne.
