Walt 2175 Like the rising hundred-rayed sun,
like the sun when it had risen,
shining like royal ornaments,

in bee’s honey devoid of bees,
being established in pleasure,
I gave them to the World’s Kinsman. Verse 2Walt 2177 Eight hundred thousand followers
of the Buddha were with him then.
Filling the bowls of all of them,
I provided a huge amount. Verse 3Walt 2178 Because of that mental pleasure,
incited by those happy roots,
for one hundred thousand aeons
I was not born in a bad state. Verse 4Walt 2179 In the forty-thousandth aeon
ago, they numbered thirty-eight,
those wheel-turning kings with great strength,
whose names were Mahisamanta. Verse 5Walt 2180 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 6
Thus indeed Venerable Isimuggadāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Isimuggadāyaka Thera is finished.
