百喻經之八五: 婦女患眼痛喻
§85 婦女患眼痛喻
(85) the woman who had sore eyes
昔有一女人，極患眼痛。有知識女人問言：“汝眼痛耶？”答言：“眼痛?！北伺畯脱裕骸坝醒郾赝?。我雖未痛，并欲挑眼，恐其后痛?！?/p>
once upon a time, there was a woman who had a bad case of sore eyes. another woman told her, "where there are eyes, there are some times pains. although my eyes do not ache now, i want to gouge them out so that they will not ache later."
旁人語言：“眼若在者，或痛不痛。眼若無者，終身長痛?！?/p>
a bystander said, "though it's true that when you have your eyes, they may sometimes ache to disturb you, yet when you don't have them, you'll be sure to suffer for lifetime."
凡愚之人，亦復如是。聞富貴者衰患之本，畏不布施，恐后得報，財物殷溢，重受苦惱。有人語言：“汝若施者，或苦或樂；若不施者，貧窮大苦。”如彼女人，不忍近痛，便欲去眼，乃為長痛。
