About this book

Birth-stories of the Buddha's earlier lives are gathered in this Sanskrit garland, ascribed to Arya Sura and translated by J. S. Speyer. It opens the Sacred Books of the Buddhists, a series edited by F. Max Müller and issued by Oxford University Press in 1895 with the patronage of the King of Siam.

Müller's preface explains how the series grew out of the Sacred Books of the East and why he wanted careful, complete translations of whole texts.
