| a3 | How was this? In the apratituläṃ*-tune: |
| a3+ | One time, (the Pārijāta-tree) turns golden... god(dess?)... time... |
| a4 | A second time, (it) scatters leaves and flowers... of the heart... time... of the gods... |
| a5 | ... the heart (of the gods) is gladdened by happiness and joy ... |
| a5+ | ... flower... |
| a6 | A fifth time (it) adorns itself with buddings... new... |
| b1 | ... (sixth) time... (it) spreads great bliss, so to speak, among the gods... |
| b1+ | A seventh (time)... from the leaves, from the stems and branches, lovely smells... spread (?)... |
| b3 | ... says to...: Worthy one! So great the distinctions...! |
| b3+ | Why is its name (parijāt*)? |
| b4 | ... they call it four kinds of names: |
| b4+ | How... having exited from there... all around... |
| b5 | Paramacitraka. Sprinkled very much (?). Nanda says: Worthy one, you have spoken very briefly. |
| b5+ | I don't know... |
| b6 | /// Near the city Sudarśana there is a great pond filled with divine water. Out from there grows [lit. has left] this tree. Therefore (it is called Pārijāta.) |
