"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, five kinds of one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be, namely: earth-bodied up to plant-bodied."
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, two kinds are stated to be, namely: subtle earth-bodied and gross earth-bodied."
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
In this phrasing, a fourfold division [is to be spoken] just as in the general uddeśaka.
"Venerable Sir, how many karma-types are stated for developable subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā?"
In this phrasing, just as in the general uddeśaka, they are stated in the same way, they bind in the same way, and they experience in the same way.
"That is so, Venerable Sir! That is so, Venerable Sir!"
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of immediately-reborn one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, five kinds of immediately-reborn one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā; in this phrasing, the twofold division [is stated] in the same way up to plant-bodied."
"Venerable Sir, how many karma-types are stated for immediately-reborn subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā?"
In this phrasing, just as the general uddeśaka of the immediately-reborn, so in the same way up to 'they experience'.
"That is so, Venerable Sir! That is so, Venerable Sir!"
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of mediately-reborn one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, five kinds of mediately-reborn one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be, namely: earth-bodied; in this phrasing, the fourfold division [is stated] in the same way up to plant-bodied."
"Venerable Sir, how many karma-types are stated for mediately-reborn undevelopable subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā?"
In this phrasing, just as the general uddeśaka of the mediately-reborn, so in the same way up to 'they experience'.
In this phrasing, just as the eleven uddeśakas were spoken in the general śataka on one-sensed beings, so should they also be spoken in the śataka on [beings possessed of] black leśyā, up to non-final and final one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā.

33.2.1023

Just as it was spoken with regard to [those possessed of] black leśyā, so also should the śataka be spoken with regard to [those possessed of] blue leśyā.
"That is so, Venerable Sir! That is so, Venerable Sir!"

33.2.1024

So also should the śataka be spoken with regard to [those possessed of] grey leśyā, with the only difference that the phrasing 'with grey leśyā' should be spoken.

"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of capable one-sensed beings are stated to be?"

"Venerable Sir, how many karma-types are stated for capable undevelopable subtle earth-bodied beings?"
In this phrasing, just as the first śataka on one-sensed beings [was spoken], so also should the śataka on the capable be spoken. The order of uddeśakas is likewise up to 'the non-final'.
"That is so, Venerable Sir! That is so, Venerable Sir!"

"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of capable earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, two kinds are stated to be, namely: subtle earth-bodied and gross earth-bodied."
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of capable subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, two kinds are stated to be, namely: developable and undevelopable. Gross ones are also like this. In this phrasing, the fourfold division is to be spoken in the same way."
"Venerable Sir, how many karma-types are stated for capable undevelopable subtle earth-bodied beings possessed of black leśyā?"
In this phrasing, just as in the general uddeśaka, so in the same way up to 'they experience'.
"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of immediately-reborn capable one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā are stated to be?"
"Gautama, five kinds of immediately-reborn up to plant-bodied."

33.2.1029

"Venerable Sir, how many kinds of incapable one-sensed beings are stated to be?"
"Gautama, five kinds of incapable one-sensed beings are stated to be, namely: earth-bodied up to plant-bodied."
Just as the śataka on the capable was spoken, with the only difference that there are nine uddeśakas, excluding the uddeśakas on the final and non-final; the rest is the same.

33.2.1030

So also the śataka on incapable one-sensed beings possessed of black leśyā.
