Description of manuscript content:

Thao Saeng Moeng and his followers had lost in the cave for ten months without food. Some of the followers died. Thus, Thao Saeng Moeng wished and asked help from Indra. Then Indra transformed himself as a hunter with Sikansai magic sword and food came in the cave. Saeng Moeng immediately acknowledged that he was Indra, then he asked the hunter to teach the stanza for reviving the dead man. The hunter taught him the stanza and also gave him the sword and Mani crystal.
