### [v2.c34.356](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c34.356)

The other story relates how, when Tissa was still a novice, he went to the Giribhaṇḍa-festival. There, having heard that the costliest offering was a pair of robes, he openly wished that he should get them. The king heard of this and tried to prevent Tissa from having the robes, but this effort was unsuccessful. The king was amazed, and, on questioning Tissa, the reply was to the same effect as that of the first story. v.l. Lenagiri.
