Idaṁ kho Kassapa Pāricchattakapupphaṁ,
This is the Coral tree flower, Kassapa,
vaṇṇasampannaṁ gandhasampannaṁ,
endowed with (good) colour and scent,
sace ākaṅkhasi, gaṇhā.” ti
if you wish, you can take (it).”
“Alaṁ Mahāsamaṇa tvaṁ yeva taṁ ārahasi, tvaṁ yeva taṁ gaṇhā” ti
“Enough, Great Ascetic, you surely brought it, you should surely take it.”
Atha kho Uruvelakassapassa jaṭilassa etad-ahosi:
Then this occurred to the yogi Uruvelakassapa:
“Mahiddhiko kho Mahāsamaṇo mahānubhāvo,
“Powerful and majestic is this Great Ascetic,
yatra hi nāma maṁ paṭhamataraṁ uyyojetvā,
since after sending me away earlier,
Tāvatiṁsaṁ gantvā Pāricchattakapupphaṁ gahetvā,
going to the Tāvatiṁsa (Heaven), picking a Coral tree flower,
paṭhamataraṁ āgantvā agyāgāre nisīdissati,
and arriving earlier, he can sit down in the sacrificial firehouse,
na tveva ca kho Arahā yathā ahan.”-ti
but he is surely not a Worthy One like I am.” 182
