At the distribution of the relics, Doṇa, watching his opportunity, hid, in his turban, the right eye-tooth of the Buddha, but Sakka saw this, and thinking that Doṇa was incapable of rendering suitable honour to this relic, removed it and placed it in the Cūḷāmaṇi-cetiya.⁵ 2. Doṇa.—A Nāga king. See Mahādoṇa.
