[1438] "But, venerable sir, when we hear of the Blessed One, 'He will set out on tour from the Kosalans to the Mallas,' on that occasion there is displeasure in us, there is grief, thinking, 'The Blessed One will be far from us.' And when, venerable sir, we hear of the Blessed One, 'He has set out on tour from the Kosalans to the Mallas,' on that occasion there is displeasure in us, there is grief, thinking, 'The Blessed One is far from us.'"
