so ca bhikṣugaṇasaṃpuraskṛtaḥ kāśyapo dhutarajo jinātmajaḥ |
prāṃjalī jinacitām upāgato gauravā praṇataśīrṣamānasaḥ || 16 ||

And the saintly Kashyapa, a son of the Conqueror, honoured by all the monks, raised his joined hands and went up to the Conqueror’s funeral-pile, reverently, with bowed head and a humble heart. (16)
