Note 110 — PART II. ON THE HISTORY OF THE BIRTH STORIES IN INDIA.

Robert Cæsar Childers translation

Not as yet found in the Jātaka Book; but Dr. Bühler has shown in the ‘Indian Antiquary,’ vol. i. p. 305, that it is the first tale in the ‘Vrihat Kathā’ or Kshemendra (Table I. No. 34), and in the ‘Kathā Sarit Sāgara’ of Somadeva (Table I. No. 33), and was therefore probably included in the ‘Vrihat Kathā’ of Guṇadhya (Table I. No. 32).

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
