Purakkhato sāvakehi, gaṅgātīramupāgami.

Uttārayiṃ bhikkhusaṅghaṃ, buddhañca dvipaduttamaṃ.

17. ‘‘Aṭṭhārase kappasate, yaṃ kammamakariṃ tadā;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi, taraṇāya idaṃ phalaṃ.

18. ‘‘Teraseto kappasate, pañca sabbobhavā [sabbhogavā (sī.)] ahuṃ;

Sattaratanasampannā, cakkavattī mahabbalā.

19. ‘‘Pacchime ca bhave asmiṃ, jātohaṃ brāhmaṇe kule;

Saddhiṃ tīhi sahāyehi, pabbajiṃ satthu sāsane.

20. ‘‘Paṭisambhidā catasso…pe… kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ’’.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā taraṇiyo thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti;

Taraṇiyattherassāpadānaṃ catutthaṃ.
