End Notes

14 BJT, ChS: Khuddakapàñhapàëi; Thai: Khuddakapàñho

15 ChS: Saraõattaya; PTS here and elsewhere has only numbers, no titles; Thai has title as Khuddakapàñhe saraõagamanaü, and so for the titles throughout

16 PTS, ChS: Saraõattayaü; Thai adds niññhitaü

17 ChS: Dasasikkhàpada

18 ChS: veramaõi, and so throughout

19 Thai: rajaña

20 Thai: adds niññhitaü

21 Thai: Dvattiüsàkàro; ChS: Dvattiüsàkàra

22 Thai, ChS: nhàru

23 Thai: aññhã

24 PTS: aññhiminjà

25 ChS adds in brackets: matthalugaü

26 PTS, ChS: kheëo

27 ChS: muttanti, omit matthake matthalungan-ti

28 PTS: matthalungaü (omit ti)

29 Thai adds niññhitaü

30 BJT, ChS: Kumàrapa¤hà here and below; Thai: Sàmaõerapa¤hà

31 PTS: Eka; Thai: Ekan

32 PTS: Dve nàma¤ ca råpa¤ ca

33 PTS: Tãõi tisso vedanà

34 PTS: vuccati (omit ti)

35 Thai: Sàmaõerapa¤hà niññhità

36 ChS: Mangalasutta, (in crude form) here and in the titles from here on

37 From here on the lines should be understood as Pathyàvatta (the normal form of the Vatta metre), unless otherwise stated

38 PTS, ChS: påjaneyyànaü

39 PTS, BJT: ârati

40 BJT: virati,

41 ChS: saüyamo

42 ChS: dhammassavanaü

43 ã is m.c. to avoid the opening 311

44 loss of niggahãta m.c. It seems better to regard ariya as containing a sarabhatti vowel, and not as resolved as Norman (GD II, pg 199) suggests

45 BJT: Nibbàõa here and elsewhere

46 BJT: Puññhassa

47 PTS: uttamaü (omit ti), note that this line has 9 syllabes through the inclusion of taü. The quotation marker is outside the metre

48 BJT, ChS: Mangalasuttaü, both omit niññhitaü here and in the following suttas

49 From here on the lines are to be understood as Tuññhubha, unless otherwise indicated.

50 va here cannot be m.c. as Norman (GD II, 191 & 194) maintains, because the break 212 is tolerated, cf 2a, 7d, 12a, 14ad, rather we must understand it as the emphatic, inserted as a line filler.

51 BJT: antaëikkhe here, and in vs 15, 16 & 17 below

52 This is an example of extended Tuññhubha, pausing at the 5th, and restarting from the same syllable.

53 ã m.c.

54 ã m.c.

55 ChS: sataü

56 Thai: pasaññhà

57 Note that ëh is a digraph, and does not make position

58 Note that vy does make position here

59 ChS: pañhavissito

60 BJT, Thai: vàtebhi

61 Thai: Ye 'rãya

62 ChS: bhusaü pamattà

63 PTS: aññhamaü

64 Note the unusual opening

65 ChS: diññhã, to produce the Upajàti break 211, but 111 is tolerated

66 ChS starts a new verse here (no 11)

67 ChS: chaccàbhiñhànàni. Note that simple ñh in this word is m.c.

68 ChS: abhabba, but we can understand abhabbÖ to give the normal cadence, cf 11c below (Norman in GD II makes no comment on the reading here)

69 ChS: kamma' to produce the classical bhagaõa break

70 Thai: yuda

71 ChS: abhabba, see note to 10f above

72 PTS, BJT: pañicchàdàya

73 ChS: yatha to produce the classical bhagaõa break

74 ss is m.c.

75 BJT: gimhàõa

76 Note the unusual cadence, which should possibly be corrected, though it occurs in the older writings

77 BJT: adesayã, here and in 13 below

78 ChS: nava to produce the classical bhagaõa break

79 PTS, BJT: città àyatike, which gives the extended form of the metre

80 Thai: aviruëhichandà, but that would give the cadence 1122, which seems unlikely

81 ChS: yaü

82 see note to 1b above

83 Thai: Tirokuóóakaõóaü. It also quotes Dhp 290 in brackets at the beginning of the sutta, (but without crossreference): Mattàsukhapariccàgà, passe ce vipulaü sukhaü, caje mattàsukhaü dhãro, sampassaü vipulaü sukhaü.

83a From here on the lines should be understood as Pathyàvatta (the normal form of the Vatta metre), unless otherwise stated

84 BJT, PTS, ChS: pahåte, but see the remark in the commentary (PTS edition pg 207).

85 ChS: ¤àtãnaü, as in 3a above, but read i with the other editions to give the pathyà cadence

86 BJT divides the following 3 verses differently, therefore vs 8 = vs 7 in that edition, and so from there on

87 BJT, PTS, ChS: pahåte

88 Thai: labhàmhase

89 Thai: kasi, ã is m.c. to give the pathyà cadence (vip 5 being normally excluded in late Vatta)

90 BJT: kayàkkayaü; Thai, ChS: kayàkayaü

91 PTS, ChS: kàlagatà

92 PTS: vaññaü; Thai: vuññhaü

93 ChS: evamevaü

94 ChS: evamevaü

95 It's rather surpising we find no reading akàsã to give pathyà here

96 BJT: runnaü (corrected thus from ruõõaü in the ÷uddhi patraya)

97 ChS: và, but short a is needed m.c. to give the pathyà cadence

98 PTS, Thai: Ayaü ca kho

99 PTS: petànaü, niggahãta is lost m.c. to avoid the opening 2222

100 PTS, BJT: anappakaü, omit ti

101 Thai: Tirokuóóakaõóaü niññhitaü

102 Thai: Nidhikaõóaü

102a From here on the lines should be understood as Pathyàvatta (the normal form of the Vatta metre), unless otherwise stated

103 Thai: nidiyyati

104 BJT, PTS, ChS: Tàva sunihito

105 Thai: yeva

106 PTS: nidhã

107 Note that yh makes position

108 Thai: sa¤¤amena

109 Thai: nidhi, ã avoids the opening 111

110 BJT: purissa (printer's error)

111 Thai: ca. But va seems to be the better reading with the short syllable m.c. to give the pathyà cadence

112 Note that the opening 3111 is unusual with the 2nd vipulà. Also one might expect a reading pitarã to give the pathyà cadence

113 ChS: càpi

114 PTS, Thai, ChS: nidhi, but ã is necessary here to give the 1st vipulà opening 3212

115 BJT, Thai: acoraharaõo

116 PTS, Thai, ChS: nidhi, ã is m.c. to avoid the opening 211

117 Thai: yaü yaü devàbhipatthenti

118 Thai, ChS: susuratà

119 Thai: susaõñhànaü

120 Thai: àdhipaccaü

121 BJT: parivàraü

122 Pathyà cadence, but with a long 5th syllable

123 ChS: sukhaü piyaü; Thai: piyaü

124 PTS, BJT: Mànusikà, ss is to avoid the opening 211

125 PTS: yoniso ve; Thai: yoniso ce; ChS: yoniso va

126 One would expect to find a reading vasi which we could then understand to be a resolved 6th syllable, note that the 5th is not resolved (the syllable needs to beshort)

127 BJT, PTS: katapu¤¤ataü

128 Thai: Nidhikaõóaü niññhitaü

129 Thai: Karaõãyamettasuttaü, (but at the end Mettasuttaü niññhitaü)

130 ChS: yanta' to give the jagaõa 121

131 Thai, ChS: suhujå, both are acceptable metrically

132 PTS, BJT, Thai: kulesu ananugiddho, but that leaves the metre wrong

133 ChS: na ca khuddam-àcare ki¤ci, which corrects the metre cf Alsdorf in Die âryàstrophen...

134 BJT, PTS, Thai: và, which then reads as Pathyàvatta with resolution of the 1st syllable.

135 ChS: sabba, here and in 5d below, to produce the jagaõa 121

136 PTS, BJT, Thai: tasà và thàvarà và anavasesà

137 ChS reads dãghà và ye va mahantà, which `corrects' the metre, but that looks very much like a scribal `correction', and the line as it stands reads as Pathyàvatta

138 BJT: rassakà 'õuka, but this reading is very poor metrically

139 PTS: và; Thai: ca

140 PTS, BJT: addiññhà

141 ChS: va,

142 BJT, PTS, Thai: và, which gives Pathyàvatta

143 ChS: va, Norman's suggests (GD II, pg 177) that we need to read va twice in this line to get Old Gãti (âryà) but that is not necessary.

144 ChS: sabba, see note to 3d above

145 PTS, BJT, Thai: naü

146 ChS: puttam, to give jagaõa, but it produces a sandhi across the two halves of the pàdayuga

147 PTS, Thai: mànasam, here and in next verse

148 ChS: lokasmi', to give jagaõa, but the reading is not acceptable at the end of the half line, and not necessary either

149 BJT: tiriyaü ca

150 PTS, BJT, Thai: averaü

151 Thai: Tiññha¤

152 ChS: va

153 ChS: sayàno yàvatàssa vigamiddho. This line as it stands is very poor metrically, but the Burmese `correcton' is not very convincing

154 PTS, BJT, Thai: vihàraü

155 ChS `corrects' the line to read Diññhi¤-ca anupaggamma sãlava, but that still leaves the metre defective, with a short 2nd gaõa. The line as it stands scans as Vatta, with the 5th vipula. If it really is supposed to be Old Gãti there appears to be a word missing, Norman suggests (GD II, pg178) reading Diññhi¤-ca <so> anupagamma

156 ChS: vinaya, which, with its other `corrections' helps to produce a classical Gãti line (with the caesura after the 3rd gaõa). We could read vineyyà to get Old Gãti. As it stands it reads as Vatta with the 4th vipulà

157 ChS: jàtuggabbha seyya'

158 PTS: punar eti (omit ti)

159 PTS: Khuddakapàñhappakaraõaü niññhitaü; BJT, ChS: Khuddakapàñhapàëã niññhità
