The illustration to Story 7, _Antelope, woodpecker, tortoise, and hunter_, is taken from Cunningham, Plate xxvii. 9. As the hunter approaches, the tortoise releases the antelope from the trap, and the antelope springs to a place of safety. In drawing the trap, the artist has followed the sculptured model, rather than the description in the text. The tree in the background is the Sirīsa-tree, _Acacia Sirisa_, more properly, _Albizzia Lebbek_, the Bo-tree of the Buddha Kakusandha. See Cunningham, Plate xxix. 3. The illustration to Story 9, _A Buddhist Tar-baby_, represents the Future Buddha in the person of Prince Five-weapons casting a spear at the giant ogre Sticky-hair. The drawing of the ogre follows closely the description given in the text. The tree in the background is the Fan-palm, represented in Cunningham, Plate xxx. 4. The trees to the right and left are specimens of the Banyan-tree, the Nyagrodha, _Ficus Indica_, the Bo-tree of the Buddha Kassapa. Note the down-growing roots. See Cunningham, Plates xv. 3, xxvi. 6, xxx. 1 and 2. The illustration to Story 11, _The anger-eating ogre_, represents the ogre seated on the Yellowstone throne of Sakka (Indra), king of the gods, in the heaven of the Thirty-three gods, thereby arousing the indignation and anger of the gods, of whom two are shown in the drawing. The tree in the background is probably the Sāl-tree. See note on illustration to Story 3. The illustration to Story 14, _King and boar_, represents the boar flying through the air by the magical power of the gem which he has just bitten. The power of flying through the air is mentioned in the oldest texts as one of the several varieties of magical power which may be acquired by the Practice of Meditation. The illustration to Story 15, _A Buddhist Henny-Penny_, shows the Future Buddha, in the form of a lion, setting out with the little hare on his back to discover the cause of the flight of the animals. The artist has introduced representatives of the various animals mentioned in the story, and a few monkeys for good measure. Trees.--Left: Magnolia. See Cunningham, Plate xxv. 1 (above archer).
