Vātaggasindhava Jātaka (No. 266).—The Bodhisatta was once born as the state horse of the king of Benares, his name being Vātaggasindhava. A she-ass, Kundalī, fell in love with him and refused to eat. Her son discovered this, and made the horse agree to come and see her after his bathe. But when the horse came, Kundalī, not wishing to make herself cheap, kicked him on the jaw and nearly killed him. The horse was ashamed and did not repeat his visit, and Kundalī died of love.
