Description of manuscript content:

Thao Kadon (Mr Occipital) was wandering to find Thao Naphak (Mr. Forehead). He travelled to Yamuna river. While he was bathing, he saw fish and asked them if they saw Thao Naphak passed through this way or not. When the king fish named Patimok heard the voice, it caught Thao Kadon and swallowed him to its stomach. But Thao Kadon was alive in the fish stomach since it was large.
