Nagara or Nakhon (entering the city) is the 13th of the 13 episodes of the Vessantara Jataka. The text tells of Vessantara who abandoned his ascetic robe and left his hermitage. The prince dressed in royal attire and returned to Sivi. He ruled his kingdom with royal virtue and died at the age of 120 years. He entered the Tusita Heaven as the male Deity Santusita.
Colophon:
[The writing of this manuscript was completed] in CS 1280, a poek sanga year, on the second waning-moon day of the tenth [lunar] month, Pathama, the third day of the week as the Mon say, at the time of the evening horn. Novice Kòngchai wrote the manuscript during his stay of assistance to Sawathu Phi Luang at Wat Ban Hong. I wish to attain the threefold happiness of which Nibbāna is the ultimate one.
