Description of manuscript content:
The text contains the guidelines to read this text. According to Pangeran Madrais, people who want to read Javanese texts have to learn Javanese script first because it is a token of respect and pride to do so. He was very keen to have Javanese script acknowledged by Indonesia because if it would disappear, the Javanese would lose part of their innate character and self-respect.
