Verses of the Senior Monks 2.9

The Book of the Twos

Chapter One

Gotama (1st)

1 Sages sleep at ease

when they’re not bound to women.

For the truth is hard to find among them

and one must always be guarded.

2 Sensual pleasure, you’ve been slain!

We’re not in your debt any more.

Now we go to extinguishment,

where there is no sorrow.
