The object is the past participle pūjito (respected, nominative singular). It has an attribute, two adverbs tattha (there). The second of them is stressed by the particle eva (just).

    Venerable Sāriputta had a lay disciple named Citta. Although he was not a monk he attained the third level of Awakenment. Once he came to Sāvatthi in order to pay his respects to the Buddha. He came with a caravan, many carts loaded with food and other goods. He stayed in the monastery many days, continually making offerings to the Buddha and monks. But still his goods did not diminish one bit.
    The day before he had to leave for his hometown, Citta offered all of his goods to the Community. But his carts were immediately full again! The gods filled them up with various priceless things. Venerable Ānanda reported this to the Buddha. He replied with this verse, saying that somebody as Citta will be revered wherever he goes.
