502 [306] “Saddhāya sīlena sutena buddhiyā,
Cāgena dhammena bahūhi sādhuhi;
Dhanena dhaññena ca khettavatthunā,
Puttehi dārehi catuppadehi ca.
503 Ñātīhi mittehi ca[307] bandhavehi ca,
Balena vaṇṇena sukhena cūbhayaṁ;
Kathaṁ na hāyeyyuṁ pareti icchati,
Atthassa middhī ca panābhikaṅkhati.
504 Sa sīhapubbaddhasusaṇṭhito ahu,
Samavaṭṭakhandho ca citantaraṁso;
Pubbe suciṇṇena katena kammunā,
Ahāniyaṁ pubbanimittamassa taṁ.
505 Gihīpi dhaññena dhanena vaḍḍhati,
Puttehi dārehi catuppadehi ca;
Akiñcano pabbajito anuttaraṁ,
Pappoti bodhiṁ asahānadhammatan”ti. [308]
