Description of manuscript content:

When King Kussarat knew that Kumphan Yaksa took away his sister named Princess Sumuntha for the Yaksa’s wife, he was very angry and upset. The king ordered his six sons to learn stanzas in order to use while looking for the princess. The six princes travelled into the forest until they met Siho and Sang Sinsai. When they knew each other that they are siblings. Then the six princes told them to look for Princess Sumuntha who was their uncle.
