sn.10.11 Saṁyutta Nikāya (Linked Discourses)

With the Nun Cīrā

So I have heard.
At one time the Buddha was staying near Rājagaha, in the Bamboo Grove, the squirrels’ feeding ground.
Now at that time a certain lay follower gave a robe to the nun Cīrā.
Then a native spirit was so devoted to Cīrā that he went from street to street and from square to square, and on that occasion recited these verses:
“O! He has made so much merit!
That lay-follower is so very wise.
He gave a robe to Cīrā,
who is released from all bonds.”
