Notes
Content: No. 21. Maung Pó Tú Nat. He was a trader of Pinyá, and was killed by a tiger on the summit of Mt. Ongyaw whilst on his way home. He is, however, represented as riding a tiger, or what may pass for a tiger, and driving it with a stick, in a Court costume, proper for a very high official, or for a prince of the royal family. There is, perhaps, therefore, some legend giving him a royal parentage or connection. [p.69]. No. 22. Yun Bayìn Nat. He was the Chief of Zimmè and was made a prisoner of war by Sinbyúmyáshin of Hantháwadí (Pegu). He died at Rangoon of dysentery in 920 B.E. (1558 A.D.), and became a Nat. This Nat is represented seated on a throne, or on a lotus throne, in high class Court dress, with a sheathed sword. [p.66]
