**Atthakaraṇa Sutta.**—Pasenadi tells the Buddha how, when he was sitting in the judgment-hall (*atthakaraṇa*), eminent nobles and brahmins and burgesses deliberately told lies because of their worldly desires and he was disgusted. The Buddha tells him that their action in doing so will be a source of ill to them for a long time¹ (*v.l. Aṭṭa°*).
