Translation

a1Having seen (the sick) and the dead, I felt weariness of life. Why cannot you (leave) the prison of the house just a little?
a1+Again the Buddha (was staying) near Śrāvastī with the community.
a2[65d]
a2As a charioteer king Prasenajit was driving. Then the axle of the chariot broke, [and] the spokes were spread apart.
a2+The king (however) at that time was doubtful about [his] life.
a3[66d]
a3Into the Jetavana to the Buddha he went. With reverence and veneration
a3+the king (then) asked the Omniscient about the breaking apart of the chariot:
a4[67d] -
a4“Will there be for me a falling from the great, royal throne? Or is there to be to me danger for [my] life?”
a4+To him the Omniscient spoke with pity:
a5“There is no danger for [your] life, nor falling from the throne either, this doubt let go from [your] mind.
a5+Although there are here, o lord, for (all) the world unpleasant laws.”
a6[68d]
a6The three to him announced the Buddha: sickness, old age [and] death. If those were not in the world, the Buddha would not need to rise after all.
a6+To remove such plagues, Omniscient ones rise here.
a7Then the one having the ten powers spoke, to turn the king’s mind away from the world.
a7+Under (the parable) of the chariot he spoke this strophe with deep meaning:
a8[69d]
a8Old [even] grow the chariots of the king, the very splendid ones. Thus also the bodies reach old age.
a8+(But) the law (of the good ones) does not reach old age,
b1[70d]
b1then (these) good [Buddhas] always make it known again among (all the) good ones. Just as the joints (of the chariot are connected with straps), so the joints of the bones [are] connected with sinews and muscles here.
b2If preserved with care, the chariots will stay for a long time.
b2+But (even) a good body quickly shows its [true] self.
b3[71d]
b3At another time again in Śrāvastī the god of gods, The Buddha was staying. In the morning he went out of the cell.
b3+The sun had already risen high.
b4[72d]
b4The Omniscient sat on [his] seat, he took off his upper garment [and] held the [his] back up to the sun. Ānanda sat on [his] knees.
b5With both palms [of his hands] he massaged the body of the Buddha and rubbed it. Ānanda spoke to the Omniscient:
b5+“There are seen on you, o God, the being-other-than-usual of [all] five sensory organs, eyes, etc.
b6[73d]
b6The cracking of the skin and the frailness of the flesh are seen on you.” “Thus it is, o Ānanda,
b7(ugly) is old age.” Then in the community meeting the Buddha spoke three excellent strophes to drive away the confusion of the novices.
b8[74d]
b8“Fie on you, old age [you are] of a raw type, not noble, you [are] causing the beings a bad shape. Its (sight) thus (pleasing) the mind

a1(Den Kranken) und den Gestorbenen gesehen habend, empfand ich [Lebens]überdruss. (Schmidt 1974: 162)
a1+Again the Buddha stayed close to Śrāvastī with the community. As a driver then drove king Prasenajit. The axis of the cart broke and the spokes were scattered apart. (cf : ii, 9) (Peyrot 2013b: 375)
a2Als Wagenfahrer fuhr der König Prasenajit. Da brach die Achse des Wagens, [und] die Speichen wurden auseinandergestreut. (Schmidt 1974: 137, 209)
a4Will I fall down from my great royal seat? Or will there be danger of my life? (Peyrot 2013b: 357)
a6If these were not there in the world, then the Buddha would not arise. (Peyrot 2013b: 372)
a6+Um solche Nöte zu vertreiben, stehen hier die Alleswissenden auf. (Schmidt 1974: 283)
a8Alt werden [auch] die Wagen des Königs, die sehr prachtvollen. Genau in derselben Weise (erreichen) auch die Körper das Alter. (Schmidt 1974: 105)
b2Wenn sie sorgfältig bewahrt [sind], bestehen die Wagen lange. (Schmidt 1974: 272)
b4Er [scil. der Alleswissende] legte [sein] Obergewand ab [und] hielt [wtl. machte] [seinen] Rücken hoch zur Sonne [hin]. (Schmidt 1974: 325, 413)
b4+Ananda saß auf den Knien, mit den beiden Handflächen streichelte(?) er den Körper des Buddha [und] rieb ihn. (Schmidt 1974: 481)
b5+Es sprach zu dem Allwissenden Ānanda: "Es werden an dir gesehen [zeigen sich an dir], o Gott, das Anders-als-sonst-Sein [aller] fünf Sinnesorgane, Augen usw. Das Rissigsein der Haut [und] die Schlaffheit des Fleisches werden an dir gesehen [zeigen sich an dir]." (Schmidt 1974: 233)
b8Shame be upon you, old age! You are of a mean kind [and] not noble. (Peyrot 2013b: 309)
