#### 1. Decay-and-Death

[1] Thus have I heard:

The Exalted One was once staying near Sāvatthī
at the Jeta Grove in Anāthapiṇḍika's Park.

And there the Exalted One addressed the brethren, saying:

"Brethren!"

"Master!" responded those brethren.

The Exalted One said:

"By him who knows not,
who sees not
decay-and-death as it really is, brethren,
there must be ardour,
for knowledge about decay-and-death as it really is;

By him who knows not,
who sees not
the uprising of decay-and-death as it really is, brethren,
there must be ardour,
for knowledge about the uprising of decay-and-death as it really is;

By him who knows not,
who sees not
the ceasing of decay-and-death as it really is, brethren,
there must be ardour,
for knowledge about the ceasing of decay-and-death as it really is;

By him who knows not,

the way going to the ceasing of decay-and-death as it really is, brethren,
