completely surrounded by a rampart made entirely of Jāmbūnada gold. / In its middle, then, was another, measuring fifty million [yojanas],
surrounded by a rampart of sapphire. / In the middle of it, those gods, O best of sages, saw [a city]
of forty million yojanas, equal in extent and length, / surrounded by a rampart of lapis lazuli.
And in its middle was an auspicious city of thirty million yojanas, / surrounded by a rampart adorned with every kind of gem.
In their midst were provinces free from all sorrow, / endowed with noble folk and all having perpetual youth,
freed from hunger and thirst, devoid of disease and grief, / immortal, abandoned by old age, with minds ever joyful,
adorned with various elongated ponds and stepped wells, / and with diverse, wondrous trees always bearing flowers and fruits.
Other auspicious trees there produce all kinds of foods; / and others ornaments, and others all varieties of garments;
others all kinds of flowers, and indeed all kinds of fruits;
