10. Reciting 
On one occasion a certain bhikkhu was dwelling among the Kosalans in a certain woodland thicket. Now on that occasion that bhikkhu had been excessively engrossed in recitation, but on a later occasion he passed the time living at ease and keeping silent.

Then the devata that inhabited that woodland thicket, no longer hearing that bhikkhu recite the Dhamma, approached him and addressed him in verse: 
“Bhikkhu, why don’t you recite Dhamma-stanzas, 
Living in communion with other bhikkhus? 
Hearing the Dhamma, one gains confidence; 
In this very life (the reciter) gains praise.” 

(The bhikkhu:) 
“In the past I was fond of Dhamma-stanzas 
So long as I had not achieved dispassion. 
But from the time I achieved dispassion
(I dwell in what) the good men call
‘The laying down by final knowledge’ 
Of anything seen, heard, or thought.”

〔一〇〕誦經（法）
爾時，有比丘住拘薩羅國之茂林。
其時，此比丘，以往甚勤誦經，今則不勤，默然而坐。
時，住彼林中天神，不得復聞此比丘之法，來到比丘之處。
到已，而以偈語此比丘曰：
比丘汝何故　　　　　今交諸比丘
不誦法句耶　　　　　人聞得歡喜
現在得稱讚
〔比丘：〕
依離欲至果　　　　　前望於法句
今依離至果　　　　　見聞思何物
依智慧捨棄　　　　　善人是為教

9. Vajjian Prince (or Vesali) 
On one occasion a certain bhikkhu, a Vajjian prince, was dwelling at Vesali in a certain woodland thicket. Now on that occasion an all-night festival was being held in Vesali. 

Then that bhikkhu, lamenting as he heard the clamour of instruments, gongs, and music coming from Vesali, on that occasion recited this verse: 
“We dwell in the forest all alone 
Like a log rejected in the woods. 
On such a splendid night as this 
Who is there worse off than us?” 

Then the devata that inhabited that woodland thicket, having compassion for that bhikkhu, desiring his good, desiring to stir up a sense of urgency in him, approached him and addressed him in verse: 
“As you dwell in the forest all alone 
Like a log rejected in the woods, 
Many are those who envy you, 
As hell-beings those going to heaven.”

Then that bhikkhu, stirred up by that devata, acquired a sense of urgency.

〔九〕跋耆子（毘舍離）
爾時，有跋耆子比丘，住毘舍離之茂林。
時，毘舍離整夜行祭事。
時，其比丘聞毘舍離器樂、聲樂之騷音而嘆息，其時以唱偈曰：
如棄林木材　　　　　我等獨住森
實則如是夜　　　　　誰比我等幸
時，彼林住一天神，憐憫此比丘，欲警覺此比丘，令思有益，來到此比丘之處。
到已，以偈語此比丘曰：
若棄林木材　　　　　汝雖獨住森
眾多人羨汝　　　　　猶如墮獄者
羨慕生天者
時，此比丘受其天神之警覺而起驚。

8. Family Mistress 
On one occasion a certain bhikkhu was dwelling among the Kosalans in a certain woodland thicket. Now on that occasion that bhikkhu had become excessively intimate with a certain family. 

Then the devata that inhabited that woodland thicket, having compassion for that bhikkhu, desiring his good, desiring to stir up a sense of urgency in him, manifest ed herself in the form of the mistress of that family. Having approached that bhikkhu, she addressed him in verse:
“By the riverbanks and in the rest house, 
In the meeting halls and along the roads, 
People gather and gossip about this: 
What’s going on between you and me?” 

(The bhikkhu:) 
“There are many disagreeable sounds 
That an ascetic must patiently endure. 
One should not be dismayed on that account, 
For it is not by this one becomes defiled. 
If one is frightened by random sounds 
Like an antelope dwelling in the woods, 
They call him ‘one with a fickle mind’: 
For him the practice does not succeed.”

(相應部 1-9-8)
〔八〕家婦
爾時，一比丘住拘薩羅國之茂林。
其時，有一比丘多住於在家。
時，彼林住一天神，憐憫其比丘、欲警覺其比丘，令思有益，到其家中化作家婦，到其比丘處。
到已，以偈告彼比丘曰：
河之岸或者　　　市門之閑場
集會堂等地　　　街頭或市集
私議汝與妾　　　原來為何故
〔比丘：〕
世多不快語　　　苦行者堪忍
不因此焦心　　　不因此痛苦
如風怖林鹿　　　其聲亦驚人
若謂輕其心　　　修行不成就

7. Nagadatta 
On one occasion the Venerable Nagadatta was dwelling among the Kosalans in a certain woodland thicket. Now on that occasion the Venerable Nagadatta had been entering the village too early and returning too late in the day. 

Then the devata that inhabited that woodland thicket, having compassion for the Venerable Nagadatta, desiring his good , desiring to stir up a sense of urgency in him, approached him and addressed him in verses: 
“Entering the village too early, 
Returning too late in the day, 
Nagadatta associates too closely with lay folk,
Sharing their pleasures and pains.
I am afraid for Nagadatta, 
So impudent, bound to families. 
Do not get caught by the King of Death, 
By the grip of the powerful End-maker.” 

Then the Venerable Nagadatta, stirred up by that deity, acquired a sense of urgency.

力強之死王　　　　　將落惡魔領
時，尊者那伽達多，依天神之警覺而驚起。
