At Sāvatthī.

Standing to one side, that deity recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:

“This life, so very short, is led onward;
one led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
do good deeds that bring you to joy.”

“This life, so very short, is led onward;
one led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
a seeker of peace would drop the world’s bait.”
