Psalms of the Sisters XX: Jentī (or Jentā)
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1909) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists I: Psalms of the Sisters (1909)
The Seven Factors of the awakened mind –
Seven ways whereby we may Nibbana win–
All, all have I developed and made ripe,
Even according to the Buddha's word.
For I therein have seen as with mine eyes
The Bless'd, the Exalted One. Last of all lives
Is this that makes up Me. The round of births
Is vanquishèd–Ne'er shall I be again!
