Sumaṅgalamātā Therī.—She was born in a poor family of Sāvatthi and was married to a rush-plaiter (\*naḷakāra\*). Her first child was a son, named Sumaṅgala, who left the world and became an arahant.¹ She became a nun, and one day, while reflecting on all she had suffered in the lay life, she was much affected, and, her insight quickening, she became an arahant.²
