¹ Lal. ch. XIX. In the "Fang-kuang-ta-chuang-yen-ching" ch. 8 we find parrots and mainahs where the other treatises have ch'ing-chio. Rājendralāla Mitra thought that the ch'ing-chio of our passage were "the blue-necked jays which are held by the Hindus to be very auspicious if seen when starting on a journey" (Buddha Gayā, p. 32, and see p. 53 note.)
