Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The father said: ‘You know me, child, that whatever I know, I told you. But come, we shall go thither, and dwell there as students.’ ‘ You may go, Sir,’ the son replied. tuting sampadyante for apadyante. The MSS. I. O. 375 and 1973 do not support this. Then Gautama went where (the place of) PravA- ha/za Caivali was, and the king offered him a seat, ordered water for him, and gave him the proper offerings. Then he said to him: ‘ Sir, we offer a boon to Gautama.’
