1. A Reed
Led On
1 At Sāvatthī.
Standing to one side, that deity spoke this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
2 “This life, so very short, is led onward.
One led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
do good deeds that bring you joy.”
3 “This life, so very short, is led onward.
One led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
a seeker of peace would drop the world’s bait.”
