Note 2 — Chapter XV
Henry Yule translation
In 1870 I saw in the Libary at Monte Cassino a long French poem on the story, in a MS. of our traveller’s age. This is perhaps one referred to by Migne, as cited in Hist. Litt. de la France, XV. 484. [It “has even been published in the Spanish dialect used in the Philippine Islands!” (Rhys Davids, Jataka Tales, p. xxxvii.) In a MS. note, Yule says: “Is not this a mistake?”—H. C.]
