[146] "The Victor (jina) named Padumuttara, eldest of the world, bull of men —
the Fully Awakened One (sambuddha), having blazed like a mass of fire, attained final Nibbāna (parinibbuta).
And when the Great Hero had attained Nibbāna, there was a vast stūpa (thūpa);
[people] set up gifts for the stūpa¹ at the most excellent relic chamber (dhātugeha).
With a confident mind (citta), joyful, I made a railing of sandalwood²
befitting the stūpa³; and incense and fragrance were offered at that time.
In whatever existence I was reborn, whether in the state of a deva or of a human,
I see no inferiority of mine: this is the fruit of former kamma (pubbakamma).
In the fifteen-hundredth aeon from now there were eight persons,
all of them named Samatta — wheel-turning monarchs (cakkavatti) of great power.
The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and also these eight liberations (vimokkha),
the six superknowledges (chaḷabhiññā) have been realized; the Buddha's teaching has been fulfilled."

Thus indeed the Venerable Elder Saparivāriya spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of the Elder Saparivāriya is concluded.
The fifth: the Apadāna of the Elder Ummāpupphiya (145)
