Description of manuscript content:
Adiccarājā, king of Uttarapañcala, and Queen Candādevi had a son named Sudhana. One day, a hunter caught the kinnari Manorah in one of his traps and came to offer her to the young prince who married her. Sometime later, a purohita treacherously convinced King Adiccarāja to hand over Manorah to a yakşa so that he might devour her. Manorah managed to escape and was found by Prince Sudhana who had gone out in search of her. The young prince brought Manorah back to Uttarapancala and ascended his father's throne.
Colophon:
Nibbāna paccayo hotu me niccaṃ dhuvaṃ I wish the Lokuttaradhamma (Supra-Mundane) to lead all sentient beings to Nibbāna. Khanan (ex-monk) Arinda, living in Ban Klang, wrote this manuscript with his own hand. May the merit derived from writing this manuscript be transferred to my family members who pass away.
