Note 1 — The Story of the Pearl Necklace
H. (Henry) Parker translation
At a village a Siṭi1 widow-mother had a son having the name Appuhāmi. That Loku-Appuhāmi, having seen that the men of that district are gambling, came to his mother, and said, “Mother, the men of this village are gambling. Having cooked rice during the day time give me it, and a little money, for me to go to gamble,” he said.
