[143] Formerly, uttering speech that comprised the good (attha) and the Dhamma,
he instructed the manyfolk;
he was a bringer of welfare and happiness to living beings;
unstinting, he bestowed the offering of the Dhamma (dhammayāga).
By that deed (kamma) of good conduct
he goes to a good destination (sugati), and there he rejoices;
and, come back to this world,
he gains the two marks (lakkhaṇa), conducing to supreme happiness.
That very one bore body-hairs risen upturned;
the joints of his feet were well set,
built over with flesh and blood, overspread with skin,
and beautiful above, up toward the knee.
If such a one dwells in the home,
he attains the foremost place among those who enjoy sensual pleasures;
and none is found superior to him:
having mastered Jambudīpa, he fares on.
And in the going forth (pabbajjā) too, being of peerless exertion,
he attains the foremost place among all living beings;
none is found superior to him:
he abides having mastered the entire world.
