    • 2006, The First Book in the Suttanta-Pitaka: Dīgha-Nikāya (I)‎, page 82:
      කන‍්නු ඛ‍්වජ‍්ජ සමණං වා බ්‍රාහ‍්මණං වා පයිරුපාසෙය්‍යාම යන‍්නො පයිරුපාසතො චිත‍්තං පසීදෙය්‍යා!"ති
      kannu khvajja samaṇaṃ vā brāhmaṇaṃ vā payirupāseyyāma yanno payirupāsato cittaṃ pasīdeyyā!"ti
      Indeed now which ascetic or Brahmin should we visit today who, for us visiting him, will soothe the heart?
    • c. 50 BC, The Buddha, Dhammapada(pāḷi), Yamakavagga, page 26; republished in The Eighteenth Book in the Suttanta-Pitaka: Khuddaka-Nikāya‎, Colombo, 2009:
      3. අක‍්කොච‍්ඡි මං අවධි මං අජිනි මං අහාසි මෙ
      යෙ තං උපනය‍්හන‍්ති වෙරං තෙසං න සම‍්මති
      3. akkocchi maṃ avadhi maṃ ajini maṃ ahāsi me
      ye taṃ upanayhanti veraṃ tesaṃ na sammati
      He abused me, he struck me, he defeated me, he robbed me.
      Hatred does not subside for those who nurse grudges thus.
