[932] "Behold the Videhas in front and the Goyāniyas behind, the Kurus and Jambudīpa — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold the moon and the sun, illuminating the four quarters as they circle round Sineru — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold Sineru and Himavanta and the ocean of great might, and the Four Great Kings — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold the parks and woodland thickets, the flat stone slabs and rocky heights, delightful, thronged with kimpurisas — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold Pārusaka, Cittalatā, Missaka, and the Nandana Grove, and the Vejayanta Palace — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold Sudhammā and Tāvatiṃsa and the Pāricchattaka in bloom, and Erāvaṇa the elephant-king — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold here the deva-maidens, sprung up like lightning from the sky, roaming about in Nandana — behold them fashioned in the gem. Behold here the deva-maidens, enticers of the sons of the devas, and the sons of the devas taking their delight — behold them fashioned in the gem."
