The Chapter on Smeared

91.

The Birth Story of the Smeared

91.

"Smeared with supreme potency, the man does not understand the smearing he swallows;

Swallow, you, swallow, wicked cheat, afterwards it will be bitter for you."

The Birth Story of the Smeared is the first.

92.

The Birth Story of the Great Lake

92.

In superior situations they desire a hero, in councils one who is not excitable;

And a dear one when food and drink are present, and a wise person when a matter has arisen.

The Birth Story of the Great Lake is the second.

93.

The Birth Story of the Intimate Meal

93.

One should not trust the untrustworthy, nor should one trust even the trustworthy;

From trust, danger follows, like a lion follows a hoofed animal.

The Birth Story of the Intimate Meal is the third.

94.

The Birth Story of Terror

94.

Scorched and soaked, alone in the frightful forest;

Naked, not sitting by a fire, the sage devoted to the search.

The Birth Story of Terror is the fourth.

95.

The Birth Story of Mahāsudassana

95.

"Impermanent indeed are activities; their nature is to arise and fall.

Having arisen, they cease; their appeasement is blissful."

The Birth Story of Mahāsudassana is the fifth.

96.

The Birth Story of the Oil Bowl

96.

Just as one would carry a bowl of oil filled to the brim without spilling;

So one should guard one's own mind, aspiring to the direction never gone to before.

The Birth Story of the Oil Bowl is the sixth.

97.

The Birth Story of Success by Name

97.

Having seen Jīvaka dead, and Dhanapāli in misery;

And Panthaka lost in the forest, the evil one returned again.

The Birth Story of Success by Name is the seventh.

98.

The Birth Story of the Dishonest Trader

98.

Good indeed is a wise one, but not one too clever;

By a son too clever, I have been singed in my mind.

The Birth Story of the Dishonest Trader is the eighth.

99.

The Birth Story of More Than a Thousand

99.

Even if more than a thousand were assembled, they might cry for a hundred years, those without wisdom;

Better is one person with wisdom, who cognises the meaning of what is spoken.

The Birth Story of More Than a Thousand is the ninth.

100.

The Birth Story of the Unpleasant Form

100.

The unpleasant in the guise of the pleasant, the disagreeable in the guise of the dear;

Suffering in the guise of happiness, overcomes the heedless one.

The Birth Story of the Unpleasant Form is the tenth.

The Litta Chapter is the tenth.

Its summary:

Sick, contempt, curiosity, mother's debt, by the sage and impermanence, the excellent bowl;

Dhanapāli, the excellent, the too clever, with more than a thousand, the unpleasant, ten.

The Middle Fifty.
