大方便佛報恩經 1.56

1.56

「爾時，大王即將四兵，順路還歸。至與須闍提太子別處，即自念言：『吾子亦當死矣！今當收取身骨，還歸本國。』舉聲悲哭，隨路求覓。遙見其子身體平復，端正倍常，即前抱持，悲喜交集，語太子言：『汝猶活也！』爾時，須闍提具以上事向父母說，父母歡喜，共載大象，還歸本國。以須闍提福德力故，伐得本國，即立須闍提太子為王。」

At that time, the great king took the fourfold army and returned along the road. Reaching the place where he had parted from Prince Sujāti, he thought to himself: 'My son must surely be dead! Now I should collect his bones and return to my own country.' Raising his voice, he wept bitterly, searching along the road. From afar, he saw his son, his body restored and twice as handsome as usual. He ran forward and embraced him, overwhelmed by mixed grief and joy, and said to the prince: 'You are still alive!' At that time, Sujāti recounted all the events above to his parents. His parents were filled with joy; together they mounted a great elephant and returned to their own country. By the power of Sujāti's merit, they conquered and regained their own country, and immediately installed Prince Sujāti as king.
