aha bhaṃte! ukkhu-ukkhuvāḍiya-vīraṇa-ikkaḍa-bhamāsa-suṃba-sara-vetta-timira-sataporaga-nalāṇaṃ–eesi ṇaṃ je jīvā mūlattāe vakkamaṃti? evaṃ jaheva vaṃsavaggo taheva ettha vi mūlādīyā dasa uddesagā, navaraṃ–khaṃdhuddese devo uvavajjati| cattāri lessāo, sesaṃ taṃ ceva|

"Now, Venerable Sir, the souls that transition into the roots of these, namely, ikṣu, ikṣuvāṭikā, vīraṇa, ikkaḍa, bhamāsa, sumba, śara, vetra, timira, sataporaga, and nala?" Thus just as was the class of vaṃsa, so here too are the ten uddeśakas beginning with root, with the exception that in the trunk uddeśaka a god takes birth; there are four lesyās; the rest is just the same.
