4.32

雙卷大般泥洹經云。時波旬國。諸花氏可樂國。諸拘隣有行國。諸滿離神州國。諸梵志維耶國。諸離昌聞佛止雙樹般泥曰。各嚴四兵。到拘夷止城外。赤澤國諸釋氏。亦嚴四兵來到。報言釋尊聖雄。出自我親。實我諸父敬慕之心。來請骨分。摩竭王阿闍世。又嚴四兵度河津來。使梵志屯蹶入問消息。今佛眾祐止此滅度。實我所天敬慕之心。來請骨分。王答佛自來此。我當供養。謝汝大王舍利分不可得。於是屯蹶聚眾人作頌告曰。

Out of hearts full of reverent devotion we have come to request a share of his bones.” King Ajātaśatru of Magadha also arrayed a fourfold army, crossed the river ford, and arrived, sending the brāhmaṇa Droṇa to enter and inquire: “Now the Buddha, the All-blessed One, has come here and passed into extinction. He was truly our deity. Out of hearts full of reverent devotion we have come to request a share of his bones.” The king replied, “The Buddha came here on his own, and I shall make offerings myself. My apologies to your Great King, but a share of the relics cannot be granted.” Thereupon Droṇa gathered the multitude and composed a verse to proclaim:
