This manuscript narrates the story of a king of Takkasila who moved his troops to defeat several polities (müang). The polities that neglected surrendering to the king were defeated. Most of the cities were fearful to his troops and surrendered, except for Mithilā city. The citizens of Mithilā fought against him to guard their city until they eventually won.
Colophon:
[The writing of this manuscript] was completed in the morning; the abbot has not got breakfast yet. In CS 1253, a ruang mao year, on the fifth waxing-moon day of the eleventh [lunar] month, the second day of the week, a poek si day as the Tai say, the writing was finished by me, Upālī, while taking care of Sawathu Cao Khruba Sommana at Wat Ban Hong Sai Mun. May the merit be transferred to my family members. My handwriting was not beautiful and looked like scribbling. Monks and novices who use this manuscript are suggested to be careful when reading it.
