御贊佛牙　宋夏五月五日。帝迎三朝（太宗真宗仁宗）御讚釋迦佛牙於大相國寺。入禁中供養。帝展敬。次舍利隔水晶匣出如雨點。帝讚以偈曰。大士釋迦文。虛空等一塵。有求皆赴感。無剎不分身。玉瑩千輪在。金剛百煉新。我今恭敬禮。普願濟群倫（翻譯名義五十二篇）。

> Imperial Praise for the Buddha's Tooth Relic: In summer, on the fifth day of the fifth month, under the Song, the Emperor welcomed the tooth relic of Śākyamuni Buddha—which had received imperial eulogies across three reigns (Taizong, Zhenzong, and Renzong)—from Daxiangguo Monastery into the imperial palace to make offerings. As the Emperor showed his veneration, relics emerged from through the crystal casket like drops of rain. The Emperor praised it with a verse, saying: "The Great Being, Śākyamuni, / Is equal to a single speck of dust in empty space. / Wherever there is a prayer, he responds to it; / There is no realm in which he does not manifest his divided bodies. / Pure as jade, the thousand wheels remain; / Like vajra refined a hundred times, it is ever new. / I now respectfully pay homage, / Universally wishing to deliver all living beings." (Fanyi mingyi, chapter 52).
