It is clear that in place of one verse in the Pali Dhammapada we have two verses in the Prakrit and in the Divya radāna, while only one of the two verses occurs in Vasubaudhu's Gathāsangraha and the Udanavarga.

The order in the Prakrit is not followed in Divyâvadāna verses, but inverted. We are unable to determine the oriler of verses in the original of the Fa-khenking and in that of its commentary for these two reasons : (i)
