Now gods and men by hundreds of thousands raised shouts of cheers and laughter by hundreds of thousands. Suine Devazutras, coming under the sky, recited this Gáthá:

Subsequently in leaping, jumping, and running the Bochisattva excelled all. Thereupon the Devaputras, coming under the sky, rected the following (atbás :
