[Note. See this story in the Vinaya, Vol. II. page 161 (translated at page 193 of Vol. XX. of the Sacred Books of the East), and in Julien's Avadanas, Vol. II. page 17. Reference is made to this Jataka by name in Buddhaghosa's Sumangala-Vilasini, page 178; but his quotation, though it purports to be from the Tittira-Jataka, is from the above passage in the Vinaya. Prof. Cowell has traced its history in Y Cymmrodor, October 1882.]
