3.9.43

‘‘Na taṃ mātā pitā kayirā, aññe vāpi ca ñātakā;
Sammāpaṇihitaṃ cittaṃ, seyyaso naṃ tato kare’’ti.

43. Neither mother nor father could do this, nor other relatives besides;
Thoughts well-directed could do this far better.

Eugene Watson Burlingame 1921, Buddhist Legends (Harvard Oriental Series 28–30)
