first story alone of each varga is passably complete, the others are cited merely by their catch words,
The events of these recitals transpire in Răyagiba, Săgeta Vaņiyagama, Hatthiņapura. The names of the personages involved are to be extracted from the karikās, which cite the titles of the 33 ajjhavanas; viz: -

This is probably to be explained by the fact that it had as its subject an entirely different text from that which we possess. It is as follows :-se kim tam anuttarovavā iyadasão 7 aņuosasu ņaṁ aṇuttarovavā iyāņaṁ nagarāi ujjaceio vaņa 365 rāyao ammā samo dhammäyao dhammakahā366 ihaloga 387 pavvajjä suyao388 tavo padimā0369 saṁlehaņā bhattapāuo anuttarovavatti (A, våto BC.
