The Hitopadesa, or Book of Good Counsel, of which the following work is a translation, may be regarded as a recension of the Panchatantra. The Hitopadesa, however, underwent some considerable alterations, since it consists of only four books instead of five. The collection of stories first appeared in English in the translations of Dr. Charles Wilkins and Sir William Jones, made soon after the “discovery” of Sanskrit literature.
