布袋和尚

The Cloth bag Monk smiled and set his bag down again.

布袋和尚又笑嘻嘻把布袋放下。

The Cloth bag Monk smiled and picked up his bag.

布袋和尚笑嘻嘻地把布袋提起。

The Cloth bag Monk smiled, set his bag down, and stood there with his hands on his hips.

布袋和尚笑嘻嘻地把布袋放下，叉手而立。

After the Cloth Bag Monk passed into stillness, people discovered from a verse on a broken-down wall that he was Maitreya Bodhisattva, who will be the next to achieve Buddhahood in this world.

果然在布袋和尚圆寂后，人才从他留在破墙上的偈语，明白他原来是将来降生人间成佛的弥勒菩萨。

At once the Happy Chinaman swung the sack over his shoulder and continued on his way.

布袋和尚立即将那布袋抡起在肩，扛起继续赶路。
