Description of manuscript content:

King Suddhodana built Siddhartha three palaces: one for winter, one for summer and one for the rainy season, as well as enclosed parks and hunting grounds. Siddhartha played in a sunny world of gardens and groves, attended by dancing girls and musicians. He lived in a world of plenty and beauty. He could have whatever he wanted, yet he was not happy. Later, the king also organized the wedding ceremony for Prince Siddhartha and Yasodhara.
