________________ NOTICE OF and who, liaving triumphed over earthly afflictions, obtained immortality at the foot of a Sál tree. "I adore KRAKUCHCHIANDA, the Lord of Munis, the unequalled Sugata, the source of perfection, who was born in Kshemavati, of a family of Brahmans, revered by kings; the life of that treasure of excellence was 40,000 years, and he obtained, at the foot of a Sirisha tree, the state o: Jinendra, with the weapons of knowledge that annihilate the three worlds. “I adore KANAKA IIuni, the sage and legislator, exempt from the blindness of worldly delusion, who was born in the city Sobhanavati, of a race of Brahmans honoured by kings. His resplendent person existed thirty thousand years. The degree of Buddha was obtained by him, munificent as the mountain of gems, at the foot of an Udumbara tree. "I adore KáśYAPA, the Lord of the world, the most excellent and eminent sage, who was born at Benares, in the family of Brahmans venerated by princes; the life of his illustrious fraine endured 20,000 years, and the waters of the three worlds were dried up by the lamp of divine wisdom, which he acquired at the foot of a Nyagrodha tree. "I adore Šákya Sinha, the Buddha, the kinsman of the Sun, worshipped by men and gods, who was born at the splendid city of Kapilapur, of the family of the chief of the Sákya kings, the life of which best friend to all the world lasted 100 years. Having speedily subdued desire, unbounded wisdom was acquired by him at the foot of the Aswattha tree.
