### [33.71](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.33.71)

三寶冥興　四生標式　慈蔭十方  
恩流萬德　智抱八藏　化周百億  
酬恩義重　斯由福力　采畫彫形  
傳經建福　舟濟橋梁　興齊沐浴  
不顧身命　精誠何抑　盛哉勝業  
功成難測

> The Three Jewels arise obscurely, / The standard model for the four kinds of birth. / Compassion shades the ten directions, / Grace flows with ten thousand virtues. / Wisdom encompasses the eight storehouses, / Transformation extends through hundreds of millions. / Recompensing their kindness is of weighty significance, / Which stems from the power of merit. / Painting colors and carving forms, / Transmitting scriptures and establishing merit, / Ferrying by boats and bridges, / And promoting matching baths: / Not sparing body or life, / How could utmost sincerity be suppressed? / Magnificent is this supreme karma, / Its accomplishment is hard to fathom!
