[92] Then, not long after the Blessed One had departed, a certain man deprived that cowherd of life in the border area between the village boundaries. Then a number of bhikkhus approached the Blessed One; having approached and paid homage to the Blessed One, they sat down to one side. Sitting to one side, those bhikkhus said this to the Blessed One: "Venerable sir, the cowherd by whom today the Saṅgha of bhikkhus with the Buddha at its head was served and satisfied, with his own hand, with milk-rice made with little water and with fresh ghee — that cowherd, venerable sir, has, it is said, been deprived of life by a certain man in the border area between the village boundaries."
Then the Blessed One, having understood the significance of this, on that occasion uttered this inspired utterance (udāna):
"Whatever a foe might do to a foe,
or a hater to a hater,
a wrongly directed mind (citta)
would do worse to him than that."
The third [sutta].
