I have sent a slightly bowdlerized version of JG Jones' translation of J 283
to

P G Dave <pgd2507@...>,
johan wijaya <dhamma_joti@...>,
Nina van Gorkom <vangorko@...>

If anyone wants copy of it (caveat lector!) please contact any of them.

Yes, it is one of the most humorous (or bawdy, for some) tales in the
Jataka,
indeed in religious literature!

Please forgive me if I have offended anyone.
