A Jātaka about a royal chaplain who receives a splendidly caparisoned horse and is admired wherever he rides, until his foolish wife insists the admiration is for the trappings alone, so he wears the horse’s ornaments himself and is humiliated instead, resolving to punish her until the king persuades him to forgive her, since all womankind is full of faults.
