Note 6 — Chapter LVI
C. H. (Charles Henry) Tawney translation
This story is identical with the story of “The merchant who struck his mother,” as given by the Rev. S. Beal in the Antiquary for September 1880. It is also found in the Avadána Śataka: see Dr. R. L. Mitra’s Buddhist Literature of Nepal, p. 28, where the above MS. is described. See also Dr. R. Morris’s remarks in the Academy of the 27th of August, 1881.
