The first part of Fa-Hsien's narrative will have sent the thoughts of some of my readers to the exposure of the infant Moses, as related in Exodus. See chap. xiii, note 14. Thus Sakyamuni had been one of the thousand little boys who floated in the box in the Ganges. How long back the former age was we cannot tell.
If he became a full monk at the age of twenty, and went to India when he was twenty-five, his long life may have been divided pretty equally between the two dynasties. If there were ever another and larger account of Fa-Hsien's travels than the narrative of which a translation is now given, it has long ceased to be in existence.
