Bali Milinda : 
Ist. Tinna Singha, a lion, which lowers its head in walking like a white 
ox at grass.

grazing. 
Sd. Bant,ha Singha, a lion of a light colour.

is red, and its roar is heard to the distance of thirty-three yojanas. 
The lion Avatar is well known. 
The last deified saint of the Jainas had a lion for his standard, according 
to Mr. Colebrooke, In Persia and Tartary it was sacred to the solar light. 
We have likewise four lions in Scripture. And whence came our lion of 
heraldry ? and the constellation Leo ?*

Phayakk,ha Rajha. Phréa Sua Krong, or, the royal tiger. 
* The Siamese Kings use a seal with a lion impressed thereon, especially on great occasions. 
A seal engraved with a flowering lotus is ordinarily employed; sometimes a Yaksha is pour- 
trayed. Lieutenant-Colonel Francklin states, that the statue of Bupp,1A, as large as life, in the 
Bhilsa temple, is seated on a throne supported by four lions couchant. Lions are frequent at 
the portals of Burman temples ; but they appeared to me of a very nondescript species.
