Description of manuscript content:
Taeng On was ordained as a nun and lived with a hermit who was her elder brother. The hermit told her that her son was alive. When Vaiyaka buried the Bodhisatta, Suriya Yongyan the son of Taeng On, Indra ordered his wife named Suchada to rescue Suriya and nursed him as her son in heaven. When Suriya was seven years old, Suchada taught him the incarnations. Later, Suriya was fighting with King Maha Vong, his father, but they did not know each other.
