"நாம் (நம் தெய்வங்களின் மீது) உறுதியாக இல்லாதிருந்தால், நம்முடைய தெய்வங்களை விட்டும் திருப்பி நம்மை இவர் வழி கெடுத்தேயிருப்பார்" (என்றும் அவர்கள் கூறுகின்றனர் (மறுமையின்) வேதனையை அவர்கள் காணும்பொழுது, பாதையால் மிக வழிகெட்டவர்கள் யார் என்பதை நன்கறிந்து கொள்வார்கள்.

අප අපගේ දෙවිවරුන් මත (ස්ථීර ලෙස) රැඳී නො සිටියා නම් ඔහු ඔවුන්ගෙන් අප නොමඟ යවන්නට තිබුණි. (යැයි ඔවුහු පවසති.) එම දඬුවම ඔවුන් දකින විට මාර්ගයෙන් වඩාත් නොමග ගියවුන් කවුරුන් දැ? යි ඔවුහු මතු දැන ගනු ඇත.
