1 "Cattārome, bhikkhave, puggalā santo saṃvijjamānā lokasmiṃ. Katame cattāro? Sarāgo, sadoso, samoho, samāno – ime kho, bhikkhave, cattāro puggalā santo saṃvijjamānā lokasminti.

2 Sārattā rajanīyesu,
Piyarūpābhinandino;
Mohena āvutā sattā,
Baddhā vaḍḍhenti bandhanaṃ.

3 Rāgajaṃ dosajañcāpi,
mohajaṃ cāpaviddasū;
Karontākusalaṃ kammaṃ,
savighātaṃ dukhudrayaṃ.

4 Avijjānivutā posā,
andhabhūtā acakkhukā;
Yathā dhammā tathā santā,
na tassevanti maññare"ti.

Chaṭṭhaṃ.
