45. This is a tentative translation of zab mo spyod pa de dag la/ yid gnyid dag ni yong med do/ nor la sred pa gter dang yang / ’dra bar ’gyur ba ma yin no [F.314.b.2]. The analogy in the final two lines of this verse seems to resonate with the following passage from the final verses of the sūtra: “Just as when a pauper feels discouraged / Upon seeing a priceless gem, / Thinking it impossible for him to find a jewel / And come into such wealth; / Likewise, how could those with little merit / And jaded perspective / Become filled with faith / When hearing about unexcelled awakening?”
