Psalms of the Sisters XI: Muttā
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1909) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists I: Psalms of the Sisters (1909)
Religion
O free, indeed! O gloriously free
Am I in freedom from three crooked things:–
From quern, from mortar, from my crookback'd lord!
Ay, but I'm free from rebirth and from death,
And all that dragged me back is hurled away.
