Ācāriya Buddharakkhita trans. of Dhp 109, "blessing" should be "blessings"

At SuttaCentral , the text reads: “these four blessing accrue”. I checked a printed copy of Bhante Buddharakkhita’s trans. (Pocket BPS edition, 2007), p. 49, and it makes “blessing” plural: “blessings,” which, of course, is grammatically correct. I also see that the source page on Access to Insight, at Sahassavagga: The Thousands , contains this same error, so you correctly copied their error. (In the old days, I’d’ve mention this to John Bullitt, but with BCBS’s generous stewardship of ATI, I don’t see a mechanism for reporting such.) I realize the priority for this is in the negative numbers. Just thought I’d mention it. Thanks for all you do :slight_smile:

Thank you for noticing! Perhaps this should be added to this thread, @moderators?
