Imaginez une statue du bouddha en matières précieuses

Enveloppée dans de puantes guenilles. Un dieu qui l’a vue abandonnée sur la route En avertit les passants pour qu’ils la libèrent.

Other English translations

Obermiller (1931) [6]
Suppose the image of the Lord made of precious jewels
Were covered b y a tattered foul-smelling garment,
And a god travelling that way would see it
And, in order to free it (from that covering),
Would explain the meaning of its abiding on the path
To the people that are met with there.
Takasaki (1966) [7]
Suppose an image of the Buddha made of precious jewels
Wrapped in the tattered garment of bad smell
Were cast off on the road, and
A god, perceiving it, would speak to travellers
About this matter, in order to retrieve it; —
Fuchs (2000) [8]
An image of the Victorious One made from precious material
lies by the road, wrapped in an evil-smelling tattered rag.
Upon seeing this, a god will alert the [passersby]
to its presence by the road to cause its retrieval.
