The husband ate the whole lizard when his wife was away.

The Buddha then told her the story of the past.¹ - [Previous: v1.c14.1114](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14.1114) - [Next: v1.c14.1116](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14.1116) - [Up: v1.c14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14.1115](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14.1115) · Pramāṇa
