\*\*Ahiguṇḍika Jātaka\*\* (No. 365).—The story of a snake-charmer in Benares who had also a tame monkey. Once, during a festival, he left the monkey with a corn-factor (the Bodhisatta) and set out to earn money by making sport with the snake. The monkey was well looked after by the Bodhisatta. Seven days later the snake-charmer returned drunk and ill-treated the monkey. When the man was asleep the monkey escaped and refused to come back in spite of his former owner's fine words.
