thag.2.40 Theragatha

Kappaṭakura

This fellow, “Rag-rice”, he sure is a rag!
Into the vase of the deathless, polished and overflowing,
sufficient teaching has been poured;
the path to build up absorptions has been laid out.
Don’t nod off, Rag—
I’ll smack your ear!
Nodding off in the middle of the Saṅgha?
You know no bounds.
