[955] There the women, finely adorned,
danced, and sang, and called out one to another in turn,
like celestial nymphs (accharā) among the devas.
Having furnished the yakkha with young women,
and with food and drink, the Guardian of the Dhamma (Dhammapāla),
pondering only his own welfare,
then entered into the presence of his wife.
To that wife — anointed with the scent and essence of sandalwood,
like an ingot of gold from the Jambū River (jambonada) —
he said: "Come, listen, good lady!
Summon the children, O lady of the coppery eyes."
Having heard her husband's word, Anojā
said to her daughter-in-law, copper-nailed and lovely-eyed:
"Summon these children, the bearers of shields,
O lady dark as the blue-lotus (indīvara) flower."
