Description of manuscript content:
Once upon a time, the Bodhisatta was born as King Bheyya, a son of a king of Hongsawadi city. He was treated unfairly and driven away from the city. He was then helped by God Indra god and could overcome all problems. He was finally back and became a king.
Colophon:
Nibbāna paccayo hontu no niccaṃ dhuvaṃ dhuvaṃ. [The writing of this manuscript] was completed at the time of the evening drum in CS 1263, on the seventh waxing-moon day of the fifth [lunar] month, the seventh day of the week. I wrote this manuscript for Khruba Sommana of Wat Ban Hong Si Bun Rüang. May the merit derived from writing the manuscript be transferred to my family members. I, Khanan (ex-monk) Anon, [wrote the manuscript] when I was a layman at Ban San Ton Chok.
