c9.s9.22

The *Saṃyukta Nikāya*³ speaks of Pasenadi as the head of a group of five *Rājās*. One these was probably his brother, the viceroy of Kāśi. Among the remaining princes and chiefs we should perhaps include the *rājanya* Pāyāsi of Setavyā mentioned in the *Pāyāsi Suttanta*⁴ and the ruler of the Kālāmas of Kesaputta.⁵
