(V) the fearless, non-differentiation,
(VI) peace, the deathless,
(VII) the exquisite, bliss, solace,
(VIII) the exhaustion of craving,
(IX) the wonderful, the marvellous,
(X) the secure, serenity,
(XI) nibbana,
(XII) the unafflicted, the passionless, the pure,
(XIII) release, non-attachment,
(XIV) the island, shelter, harbour, refuge,
(XV) the ultimate.
