Having passed beyond the crystal, and the ever-intoxicating treacherous one;

You are seated on a stone, from which you will not be freed while living.

The Kālakaṇṇi Birth Story

83.

One becomes a friend indeed by seven steps, but a companion by twelve;

By a month or a fortnight one becomes a relative, beyond that even like oneself;

The Kālakaṇṇi Birth Story is the third.

84.

The Door to Welfare Birth Story

And acting in conformity with the Dhamma, and non-sluggishness - these six are the chief doors to benefit.

The Kimpakka Fruit Birth Story

Not knowing the danger in the future, whoever indulges in sensual pleasures;

At the end of the result they strike him, like having eaten a poisonous fruit.

Morality indeed is good, morality is unsurpassed in the world;

See the serpent with terrible poison, being moral he is not killed.

87.

The Blessing Birth Story

87.

For whom blessings have been uprooted, omens, dreams, and characteristics;

He, having transcended the faults of blessings, having overcome the pairs and bonds, surely does not come to this again.

The Blessing Birth Story is the seventh.

88.

The Rivalry Birth Story

88.

One should utter only what is good, one should not utter what is evil;

Release of good speech is excellent, having uttered evil one is tormented.

89.

The Deceitful Birth Story

Your speech indeed was smooth, you speaker of kind words;

You clung to a mere blade of grass, yet they carry off a hundred gold coins.

He who does not understand the good done for him before, the benefit done;

When a task arises afterwards, he does not find one to do it.

Its summary:

We Drank and Treacherous, Positions of Beings, Six Doors and Future, and again;
