1.87

修行本起云。太子年至十七。王為採擇名女無可意者。有小國王。名須波弗。漢言善覺。女名裘夷。端正少雙。八國皆求悉不與之。白淨王召而告之。吾為太子娉取卿女。善覺憂愁。若不許者恐見誅伐。與者諸國結怨。女言表白淨王。國中勇武技術最勝者。我乃為之。王勅群臣並出戲場。太子舉象。射中鐵圍山。善覺送女詣太子宮。

The Xiuxing benqi jing says: When the prince was seventeen years of age, the king sought to select celebrated maidens for him, but none pleased him. There was a king of a small state named Suprabuddha, which in Chinese means Shan Jue ("Good Awakening"). His daughter was named Gopī, exceptionally beautiful and peerless. Eight kingdoms all sought her, but he gave her to none. King Śuddhodana summoned him and said: "I wish to betroth your daughter to the prince." Suprabuddha was sorrowful, [thinking]: "If I do not consent, I fear I will be attacked; if I give her, I will incur the enmity of the other kingdoms." The daughter said, presenting a petition to King Śuddhodana: "Whosoever in the realm is foremost in valor and martial skill, to him alone shall I belong." The king commanded the ministers to go out together to the tournament ground. The prince lifted the elephant and shot an arrow that struck Mount Cakravāḍa. Suprabuddha then sent his daughter to the prince's palace.
