- c. 50 BC, The Buddha, Dhammapada(pāḷi), Yamakavagga, page 26; republished in The Eighteenth Book in the Suttanta-Pitaka: Khuddaka-Nikāya[1], Colombo, 2009:
- 4. අක්කොච්ඡි මං අවධි මං අජිනි මං අහාසි මෙ 4
යෙ තං න උපනය්හන්ති වෙරං තෙසූපසම්මති.- 4. Akkocchi maṃ avadhi maṃ ajini maṃ ahāsi me 4
Ye taṃ na upanayhanti veraṃ tesūpasammati. - He abused me, he struck me, he defeated me, he robbed me.
