“Veṭambhinīti me nāmaṃ,
pitusantaṃ mamaṃ tadā;
Mama hatthaṃ gahetvāna,
upānayi mahāmuniṃ.

Imemaṃ uddisissanti,
buddhā lokagganāyakā;
Tehaṃ upaṭṭhiṃ sakkaccaṃ,
pasanno sehi pāṇibhi.

Ekattiṃse ito kappe,
buddhe upaṭṭhahiṃ tadā;
Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi,
upaṭṭhā­nas­sidaṃ phalaṃ.

Tevīsamhi ito kappe,
caturo āsu khattiyā;
Samaṇupaṭṭhākā nāma,
cakkavattī mahabbalā.

Paṭisambhidā catasso,
… pe …
kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ”.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā buddhu­paṭṭhā­yiko thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Buddhu­paṭṭhā­yi­kat­theras­sāpadā­naṃ navamaṃ.
