汝見刀劓鼻者。迦葉佛時。是出家人。佛僧淨地洟唾污地。故入地獄刀劓其鼻。火燒受苦。至今不息。

'The one whose nose you saw cut off with a knife—in the time of Kāśyapa Buddha, he was a renunciant who defiled the clean ground of the Buddha and Saṃgha with snot and spittle. Therefore, he entered hell to have his nose cut off with a knife, burned by fire and enduring suffering without ceasing down to the present day.'
