Visuddhimagga VII-43

Paññāsayojanakkhandha-sākhāyāmā samantato;

Satayojanavitthiṇṇā, tāvadeva ca uggatā;

Jambū yassānubhāvena, jambudīpo pakāsito.

Yañcetaṃ jambuyā pamāṇaṃ, etadeva asurānaṃ citrapāṭaliyā, garuḷānaṃ simbalirukkhassa, aparagoyāne kadambassa, uttarakurūsu kapparukkhassa, pubbavidehe sirīsassa, tāvatiṃsesu pāricchattakassāti.

Tenāhu porāṇā –

‘‘Pāṭalī simbalī jambū, devānaṃ pāricchattako;

Kadambo kapparukkho ca, sirīsena bhavati sattamanti.

‘‘Dveasīti sahassāni, ajjhogāḷho mahaṇṇave;

Accuggato tāvadeva, cakkavāḷasiluccayo;

Parikkhipitvā taṃ sabbaṃ, lokadhātumayaṃ ṭhito’’ti.

一株称为奈迦的阎浮树，

它的身干的周围十五由旬，

周围干枝的长度五十由旬，

伸展的直径和高度

同样的一百由旬。

阎浮洲便因那树的巨大而得名，

和阎浮树一样大的树有：阿修罗的基脱罗巴答利树，迦楼罗的胜跋利树，西俱耶尼洲（西牛货洲）的迦藤跋树，北俱卢洲的劫波树，东毗提诃洲（东胜身洲）的西利娑树，三十三天（忉利天）的巴利却答迦树。

所以古人说：

巴答利树，胜跋利树，阎浮树，

诸天的巴利却答迦树，

迦藤跋树，劫波树，

以及第七的西利娑树。

轮围山，

围住全世界，

深入海底和超出水面的相同，

各有八万二千由旬。

Ñ: The Jambu Tree called Naga lends the name, by its magnificence,

To Jambudīpa's land; its trunk, thrice five leagues in circumference,

Soars fifty leagues, and bears all round branches of equal amplitude,

So that a hundred leagues define diameter and altitude.

Ñ(VII,43): The World-sphere Mountains' line of summits plunges down into the sea

Just two and eighty thousand leagues, and towers up in like degree,

Enringing one world-element all round in its entirety.

And the size of the Jambu (Rose-apple) Tree is the same as that of the Citrapāṭaliya Tree of the Asura demons, the Simbali Tree of the Garula demons, the Kadamba Tree in [the western continent of] Aparagoyana, the Kappa Tree [in the northern continent] of the Uttarakurus, the Sirīsa Tree in [the eastern continent of] Pubbavideha, and the Pāricchattaka Tree [in the heaven] of the Deities of the Thirty-three (Tāvatiṃsa).

Hence the Ancients said:

'The Pātali, Simbali, and Jambu, the deities' Pāricchattaka,

The Kadamba, the Kappa Tree and the Sirīsa as the seventh'.
