Following the procurement of a rare palm leaf manuscript in the Burmese capital, the authors attained were supplied with copies and interesting details respecting the sayings and doings of Gaudama. Reverend Bigandet have gathered much information on the condition of Gaudama, previous to his last existence, on the origin of the Kapilawot country, where he was born, and on the kings he has descended from. The story of Dewadat is narrated at great length which will be of great interest to those studying the life of Gaudama and the connections to the religious system of Buddhism.
