^{page 83 note 1} Asaṃyuttaṃ, according to B.M.S., means a bestial union.

^{page 84 note 1} The B.M.S. reads cattam.

^{page 84 note 3} Yamunām, the Burmese translates as beneath Yamunā, and not as a patronymic.

In the country of Bārāṇasi, when Brahmadat was king, 500 sailors were wrecked in the sea, and, by the force of the wind, one of them was carried to Karampira harbour. On account of his emaciated body,-people said, “This ascetic is a person of small requirements,” so they kept him. Thinking that he was now well off, and to keep up his character, when they offered him garments he declined them. The people, thinking it was impossible to find a more abstemious man, had a great regard for him and built him a cell, and he was known far and wide as the “Naked one of Karampira” (Karampira acelaka). A pince of the Nāgas and a prince of the Garuḷas used to comeand worship him, and one day, when so engaged, the Garula said, “We Garuḷas when catching Nāgas are often destroyed by drowning, there must he some secret cause for this; when the Nāga comes, ask him the reason and let me know.” The ascetic agreed, and when the Nāga came, he questioned him; and the Nāga said, “If I were to tell this, all the future generations of Nāgas would be destroyed; but if you will promise not to reveal it, I will tell you.” The ascetic promised, saying, “If I do, may my head be split in seven!” The Nāga then said, “When the Garulas are going to swoop, we make ourselves a thousand cubits long and swallowa great rock and then show fight with our heads, so when the Garulas seize our heads they cannot lift us and get drowned; but if the Garulas seized us by the tail and held us upside down, we should vomit the rock” The hermit, however, did not keep his promise, but told the Garula. The Garuḷa, therefore, went and seized the Nāga, and whilst he was being carried off, he told the Garula how he had been deceived. The Garula took pityon him, and telling him that it is always best to keep secrets, let him go. The Nāga then wished that the punishment of oath-breaking should befall the hermit, and immediately his head split into seven pieces and he went to Avici.

^{page 103 note 3} The Mandalay MS. reads “Kosiyassa isino,” and inserts akkhā taught.

htokaṃ khāditva attano kāyāṃ paribbhositvā

dibba mautam jappanto bodhisattam upasañkamitvā

^{page 113 note 2} Tātā tāpasa dear hermit; Burmese translates elder brother hermit.

^{page 114 note 1} Prof. Fausböll gives ālamba for alampāyana. If this be correct, the derivation would probably be from āḷambaro a little drum, which may have had a root ādam; or a word for this kind of drum in the Hill tracts of Aracan is ătam, and snake-charming originated, no doubt, amongst the aboriginal inhabitants of India.

^{page 115 note 1} The Mandalay MS. has bhūsamutthim.

^{page 115 note 2} The Mandalay MS. has Khurājino and says some read Kharājino, the first word meaning a cloth dyed with black wood and, hoofs, and the latter rough black dyed.
