Translation
(continues from A 18)
| a1+ | collecting merits one by one, during a life of humans 120 years long, under the name of Śākymuni, as one having arrived in this way, Arhat, Buddha and master, having understood all the dharmas, he had arisen in the world. |
|---|---|
| a3 | The Arhat’s lineage and family, however, was such: |
| a3+ | the queen named Mahāmāyā was his mother, |
| a4 | the king named Śuddhodana [was his] father, [the one] named Rāhula [was his] son, |
| a4+ | [the one] named Ānanda [was his] servant, |
| a5 | [and the two] named Śāriputra and Maudgalyāyana [were his] excellent pair of disciples. |
| a5+ | The Arhat, however, (at this time) redeeming the beings worthy of conversion, with [his] servant Ānanda went in Bṛhaddyuti's ... to camp at night. |
| b1 | The Arhat, too, || In the E.-tune: || as the result of a hundred kalpas of merit, had a body that had the powers of numberless Nārāyaṇa-like heroes and which by its ornaments and marks surpassed all things worth seeing. But going from country to country it came to him to feel sickness through the wind. |
| b3+ | Thereupon the Arhat Śākymuni, the [god] of gods, the Buddha – up to this feeling of sickness, too, he had come, intending to do something beneficial to the world – says to Ānanda: |
| b5 | Go, oh Ānanda |
| b5+ | [and] with the word of the Buddha speak to Bṛhaddyuti, |
| b6 | the potter: the master, the Buddha – he feels sickness through sickness of the wind – longs for warm water and sesame oil. |

Commentary
Remarks
| Transcription and translation are based on Carling et al. 2009. | |
| Transcription and references have been transferred from the "Text and Reference Database of the Tocharian A Language" (Gerd Carling Lund University) (funded by the Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation and SCAS). | |
| The leaf number on the margin has been lost, but an unreadable number is written inside the string hole of the verso side by a different hand. Since this leaf stands in a continuous series, it actually ought to have the leaf number 83, while the leaf number inside the string hole ought to have been 74 in theory, but this number 74 is actually attested in the following (!) leaf. The combination of lost margin and deviating string-hole numbering starts in A 15 and continues until A 24. |
Philological commentary
| The translation is largely based on Sieg 1944: 22-24, and Carling et al. 2009. | |
| n1 | On the restoration bṛhadyute(nāṃ)see Sieg and Siegling 1921: 15 and Carling and Pinault 2023: 321. |
| n2 | The tune has 4x12 syllables, rhythm 5/7. |
| n3 | Carling and Pinault 2023: 321 restore (riyac) (kātse). |
