14.19

陛下恭弘付囑遠念芳猷。分御膳以飯足千僧。流香茗而數盈百串。繽紛梵宇郁馥禪庭。凡在門生無任感荷。不勝悲戴之至。謹附監使奉表陳謝以聞謹言。

Your Majesty reverently amplifies his entrustment and fondly contemplates his fragrant tracks: dividing the imperial meals to feed a full thousand monks, and dispensing fragrant tea to a number exceeding a hundred strings. The Brahmā sanctuary is splendidly adorned; the meditation courtyard is fragrant and rich. Among all his disciples, none can bear their deep appreciation; unable to contain the utmost of grief and veneration, I respectfully append this memorial through the Supervising Commissioner to present my gratitude and bring it to [Your Majesty's] hearing. Respectfully submitted."
