Giridattajātaka
“Thanks to the groom”—This story the Master told while staying in Veluvana Park, about keeping bad company. The circumstances have been already recounted under the Mahilamukha Jataka. Again, as before, the Master said: “In former days this Brother kept bad company just as he does now.” Then he told an old story.
