Colophon:
[The writing of this manuscript] was completed at the time of the evening drum, rainy season. It rains heavily today. I wrote the manuscript for Buddhism so that the religion could last long as the life of this manuscript. May I definitely possess sharp knowledge. Nibbānaṃ paramaṃ sukhaṃ. May this merit be transferred to my family members, my teachers, and lay supporters of the monastery. In CS 1240, a poek yi year, on the fifteenth waxing-moon day of the tenth [lunar] month, a Sunday, Monk Paññā wrote this manuscript with by himself. My handwriting was not beautiful. [I wrote this manuscript] during my assistance stay to Sawathu Cao Chumphu at Wat Ban Phang Chai.
