| a1 | [37d] ... |

| a1 | ... (he thought): “the sensual pleasures [are] not permanent ones, nor [is] happiness everlasting ... |
| a2 | [38b] ... |
| a2 | ... (for everybody) must leave his people, but by no means will he obtain great fruit out of such abandonment. |
| a3 | [38d] |
| a3 | (But whosoever) (goes) from the house, from such abandonment he will obtain great fruit [and] eternal happiness. The crude sensual pleasures ... |
| a4 | ... in their smell those dignified ones, who have gone from the pool of sensual pleasures, [are] not to those ... |
| a5 | [39d] ... |
| a5 | ... the fire (of sensual pleasure) glows in [his] mind, the whole body burns on him like a firebrand with passion ... |
| a6 | [40b] |
| a6 | ... from (smell) [and] taste, from suffering and sorrow and from the two [sexual] kinds female and male he drives out all attachment. To whom, however, ... |
| a6+ | after (that about the sensual pleasures) he spoke this section about thirst. |
| a7 | [40d] |
| a7 | Hear this now with love! In Dharmasomas (Udānālaṅkāra) ... |
| a7+ | the God (of Gods), the Buddha, the shelter and refuge, was staying near Śrāvastī. |
| a8 | [1b] .. |
| a8 | There he summoned the pupils ... |
| b1 | (1). [2a] |
| b1 | (The thoughts) [are] to be held from the mind. [To] such minded people this ripe fruit of thought ... |
| b2 | [2c] [2d] ... |
| b2 | ... here at the demand of the (teachers). All this [is] wrong. Into judgments the beings turn the thoughts ... |
| b2+ | (In) this one’s (mind) are three thoughts: |
| b3 | [3c] ... |
| b3 | one of sensual pleasures, the second, however, of malice, the third that of harm ... |
| b4 | [4a] [4b] |
| b4 | .... not from the Yakṣas. As it [is] the peculiarity of this one’s mind, by the liquor of the thoughts he [is] (intoxicated?) |
| b5 | [4d] |
| b5 | the evil flaws of the thoughts, of these beware. Then the Buddha spoke (two strophes) ... |
| b5+ | (When) the thoughtful (human, aroused by the thoughts), a being of violent passion, [is] seeing (only) the purity of this body, [then] his thirst (grows) even more ... |
| b6 | [5d] ... |
| b7 | If he is (anxious for the smothering of the thoughts, however), constantly practices a disgust [at the body], [is] constantly mindful [and] controlling all six senses in, ... |
| b8 | [6d] |
| b8 | ... the Buddha. Who, however, were still beginners, they/who ... the evil thoughts ... |

| a5 | Das Feuer (der Sinneslust) glüht in [seinem] Geist, der ganze Körper brennt ihm wie ein Feuerbrand(?) vor Leidenschaft. (Schmidt 1974: 108) |
|---|---|
| a8 | Der Gott der (Götter), der Buddha, der Schutz [und] die Zuflucht, befand sich bei Śrāvastī. Dort rief er die Schüler ... (Schmidt 1974: 379) |
| b3 | (In) diesem (Geist) wirken drei Vorstellungen: eine der Sinneslust, die zweite aber des Übelwollens, die dritte die des Leidzufügens. (Schmidt 1974: 280) |
| b5 | ... die üblen Fehler der Vorstellungen, vor denen hütet euch! (Schmidt 1974: 84, 306) |
| b7 | [Wenn] er ... ständig das Abscheu-Empfinden [gegenüber dem Körper] übt, ständig bedachtsam [und] alle sechs Sinnesfunktionen im Zaum haltend[wtl. gezügelt habend] [ist], ... (Schmidt 1974: 351) |
