Description of manuscript content:
When two gardeners were back they saw the four boys died. They cried with being mournful. Then they cremated the boys in their garden. The next morning, they went for collecting the remains but they found four frangipani trees rising at the cremation. They took a good care of the frangipani trees. When Queen Akkhi knew that the boys were born as frangipani trees, she ordered her servants to cut the trees and threw away on the river.
