Atha kho, bhikkhave, vipassī kumāro bahūnaṃ vassānaṃ bahūnaṃ vassasatānaṃ bahūnaṃ vassasahassānaṃ accayena sārathiṃ āmantesi:
Then, after many years, many hundred years, many thousand years had passed, Prince Vipassī addressed his charioteer,
2.1.2
‘yojehi, samma sārathi, bhaddāni bhaddāni yānāni uyyānabhūmiṃ gacchāma subhūmidassanāyā’ti.
‘My dear charioteer, harness the finest chariots. We will go to a park and see the scenery.’
2.1.3
‘Evaṃ, devā’ti kho, bhikkhave, sārathi vipassissa kumārassa paṭissutvā bhaddāni bhaddāni yānāni yojetvā vipassissa kumārassa paṭivedesi:
‘Yes, sir,’ replied the charioteer. He harnessed the chariots and informed the prince,

Atha kho, bhikkhave, vipassī kumāro bhaddaṃ bhaddaṃ yānaṃ abhiruhitvā bhaddehi bhaddehi yānehi uyyānabhūmiṃ niyyāsi.
Then Prince Vipassī mounted a fine carriage and, along with other fine carriages, set out for the park.
