Ummadanti Jātaka (No. 527).—The story of Ummadanti, as given above. The story was related in connection with a backsliding brother who, having seen a very beautiful woman as he was going his alms-rounds in Sāvatthi, gave himself up to despair and had to be led to the Buddha for admonition.¹ The story is also found, with certain slight variations, in the Jātakamālā under the title of Ummādayantī Jātaka.²
