一則本生故事，講述一位窮人虔誠地向樹神供養一塊粗糠餅，因見旁人供品豐厚而自慚形穢，樹神卻因此為他指出地下埋藏的財寶，使他獲封王家財務官，與一位窮人向佛陀供養類似薄禮的故事相呼應。

A birth-story about a poor man who offered a humble bran-cake to a tree spirit out of devotion, ashamed beside others’ lavish gifts, and who was rewarded when the spirit revealed a buried treasure that won him the post of royal treasurer, echoing a similar act of generosity by a poor man toward the Buddha.
