Description of manuscript content:

The Buddha talked about his past life when he was born as Samudghosa-kumāra. He married Vindumati, a daughter of Rammapura’s king. One day they went hunting and got lost. As a result, Vindumati was separated to another city. She sold a ring she had and used money to build a pavilion and employed artists to paint her story on the wall of the pavilion. One day, Samudghosa-kumāra visited that pavilion and saw the painting. Finally, they met one another and Samudghosa-kumāra took Vindumati back to the city.

Colophon:

ปริปุณณะแล้วยามกองแลงแก่ข้าน้อยแล ตัวบ่งามสักคายแลเจ้าเอิย ฯ [The writing of this manuscript] was completed at the time of the evening drum. My handwriting is not beautiful.
