N: Ven. Buddhadhatta gave as example text below, but in PED there is
the adverbial use kaama.m: at will. willingly, instead of certainly.
This is more in conformity with the Ja. text, see below.
"Kaama.m cajaama Asuresu paa.na.m;
Maa me dijaa vikulaavaa ahesu.m." [J.i,198-206]
Y.P. Certainly we must leave our lives in the hands of the Asuras,
and let these birds not go without their nests.
-------
N: See verse, in J. I, 203:
I offer up, a willing sacrifice,
My life to yonder Asuras; these poor birds
Shall not, through me, from out their nests be torn.
Y.P. Even though it is the last period (of life), he may yet attain
the Deathless State.
---------
N: In this context: he remembers the saints of earlier days, and now
it is at a later time. He may still attain nibbaana.
PTS transl: after-time.
suggest: Even though it is at a later time, he may yet attain the
Deathless State.

domanassa.m pa.tisa.mvedeti: Kinti me bhoge n'eva raajaano
hareyyu.m... ti" [M.i,86] On account of protecting those possessions
he becomes troubled in his mind (with the thought): "Whether these my
things would not be taken forcibly by kings...".
-------
N: � How (by what means) would kings not take away my possessions...?�
----------
75. kira, really; truly; I should think (It connects new points in a
narrative and refers to a report by hearsay.)
Y.P. "Ja.tilassa kira gehe bhuumi.m bhinditvaa suva.n.napabbato
u.t.thito ti sutvaa." [DhA.iv.216] (The king) having heard that a
mountain of gold had arisen, rending the earth asunder, in the
Ja.tila's house.
---------

Y.P. (a) "Atha na.m Satthaa: Ki.m, bhikkhu, naalattha tva.m tattha
