Tatra kho Bhagavā bhikkhu āmantesi:|| ||

"Pañc'ime bhikkhave,||
ādīnavā danta-kaṭṭhassa akhādane.|| ||

Katame pañca?|| ||

Acakkhussaṃ,||
mukhaṃ du-g-gandhaṃ hoti,||
rasa-haraṇiyo na visujjhantī,||
pittaṃ semhaṃ bhattaṃ pariyonandhati,||
bhatta-massa nacchādeti.|| ||

Ime kho bhikkhave,||

Pañc'ime bhikkhave ānisaṃsā danta-kaṭṭhassa khādane.|| ||

Katame pañca?|| ||

Cakkhussaṃ,||
mukhaṃ na du-g-gandhaṃ hoti,||

bhatta-massa chādeti.|| ||

Ime kho bhikkhave pañca ānisaṃsā danta-kaṭṭhassa khādaneti.|| ||
