Bhalliya Bhalliyattheragāthā

He has cast aside the army of the King of Death, “Yopānudī maccurājassa senaṁ, as a fragile bridge of reeds by a great flood. Naḷasetuṁva sudubbalaṁ mahogho; Victorious since his fears have vanished: Vijitāvī apetabheravo hi, tame and steadfast, he has become quenched. Danto so parinibbuto ṭhitatto”ti.

That is how this verse was recited by the senior venerable Bhalliya.
