The Discourse on Midday
232.
On one occasion a certain monk was dwelling among the Kosalans in a certain jungle thicket.
Then the deity dwelling in that jungle thicket approached that monk;
having approached, spoke this verse in the presence of that monk -
"At the midday hour, when the birds have settled down,
The mighty forest just resounds. That appears fearful to me!"
[The monk:] "At the midday hour, when the birds have settled down,
The mighty forest just resounds. That appears delightful to me!"
