Psalms of the Brethren IV: Punna of the Mantanis
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1913) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists II: Psalms of the Brethren (1913)
Aye with the good consort, with them
Who know, who understand, who see the Good.
Great is the Good and deep and hard to see,
Subtle and delicately fine, to which
The wise and brave do penetrate, e’en they
Who strenuous live and lofty vision gain.
