10. Tissā.—Wife of Muṇḍagutta. Wishing to give alms, they sold their son and bought a cow, which gave them rich ghee. A minister, displeased with them, had the cow confiscated by the king; but the king discovering that Tissā alone could milk her, asked her her story, and gave them great rewards, making the minister their slave. They lived in Tissambatittha in the time of Saddhātissa.¹
