§28 为妇贸鼻喻
(28) change the wife's nose
昔有一人，其妇端正，唯有鼻丑。其人外出，见他妇面貌端正，其鼻甚好，便作是言：“我今宁可截取其鼻，著我妇面上，不亦好乎！”
once upon a time, there was a man whose wife was graceful except for her ugly nose. when he was out, he saw another graceful looking woman with a pretty nose. it came into his mind that "i would cut her nose and transplant it on my wife's face. wouldn't that be nice?"
即截他妇鼻，持来归家，急唤其妇：“汝速出来，与汝好鼻。”
he then cut the nose off this other woman. caring it home he hurriedly called out to his wife, "come quickly! i got a pretty nose for you."
其妇出来，即割其鼻，寻以他鼻著妇面上。既不相著，复失其鼻，唐使其妇受大苦痛。
once she came out, he cut off her nose and replaced it with the one he had cut off first. it did not fit; also the wife suffered a great pain.
世间愚人，亦复如是。闻他宿旧沙门、婆罗门有大名德，而为世人之所恭敬，得大利养，便作是念言：“我今与彼便为不异。”
