Captain Jaurs Low on Buppjaa and the Phrabdt. 117 
No. 71. 
Parechatta. The Siamese flower, Dak montja, which, they say, grows 
only in Heaven. 
No. 72. 
Baraphet. Nine sorts of precious stones. The nine gems, perhaps, of 
Vicramapirya’s court. King Barommacnakxra had seven of these, ac- 
cording to the Bali Milinda. 
No. 73. 
Mahéngsa, or Mahesélo. The Buffalo, or Siamese Kwai. 
This animal, as Mr. H. T. Colebrooke has informed us, is a distinguishing 
mark of Vasupusya, son of Vasupusya, by Jaya, and the twelfth god in 
succession of the Jainas. 
No. 74. 
The hills Sattap,hanp,hot, or Sattap,harép,han. 
No. 75. 
Rama Sura. The Siamese Rama Sun, or Rakhsha. 
No. 76. 
Urpua Tapasa, Maha Risht. The Siamese Rus?, or the great Rishi; who 
figures also amongst the Siamese and Burman asterisms. He is, like the 
Deva shis of the Hindus, supposed by the Siamese to be still alive, and to 
be older than Bupp Ha.* 
No. 77. 
Dha Chang. Perhaps the bow of Rama, which no mortal could draw, 
and was only used by Rama and Bupp na. 
* In their Histories of Phra Pathom he seems alluded to under the title of UrtHakHUT 
(Assagutta in Bali), who performed sundry miracles. The Maha Rishis are elsewhere the seven 
preceptors, or great saints; Adam being the first. This Maha Rust has his rosary of 108 beads, 
to note so many prayers or sentences. , The Brahmans, the Buddhists, the antient Mexicans, 
the Romans, the Chinese, the Mussulmans, and the Roman Catholic Christians, all use beads.
