Are bound by the five fetters,  
And brought forth with the sūtra noose.  
  
“Once all the bhūtas have arrived  
On the mountain that destroys bhūtas,  
They ponder this incantation,  
The source of all incantations.  
  
“Since this severely strict punishment  
Was uttered by all buddhas,  
We all respectfully  
Go to Gautama for refuge!  
  
“You should firmly obey this,  
And everything will vanish!”  
  
Then, all of a sudden  
The assemblies of bhūtas arrived.  
Through the noose incantation  
Billions of yakṣas were summoned—  
  
Those that dwell  
On mountains and precipices,  
In oceans and lakes,  
In rivers, cascades, and springs;  
  
Those that dwell in parks and mansions,  
In gardens and forests,  
In shrines and towns,  
And at tree trunks;  
  
Those that dwell at town gates and in villages,  
In cities and countries,  
In royal palaces and doorways,  
And in mansions;  
  
Those that dwell in maṇḍalas and charnel grounds,  
And likewise, in temples,  
At borders, and in customs houses,  
Empty houses, and wild places;  
  
All the yakṣas were summoned from above and below,  
The four directions, and all intermediate directions.  
  
Some played clay drums,  
Others played gargara drums.  
The Mahābalas played  
Lutes, flutes, and small kettledrums.  
  
As they played these instruments,  
Sang songs, and danced, they summoned  
Indra, Soma, and Varuṇa,  
Bharadvāja and Prajāpati,  
  
Vikala¹⁴ and Lohitākṣa,  
Himavat and Supūrṇaka,  
Candana and Kāmaśreṣṭhī,  
Maṇikaṇṭha and Nikaṇṭhaka,  
  
Prajāguru,  
The divine son Mātali,  
The gandharva Citrasena,  
Nararāj, Jinarṣabha,  
  
Likewise the one named Pañcaśikha,  
Tumburu
