Description of manuscript content:

A Seṭṭhi (millionaire) living in Benares had two wives. The first wife, Sudhamma, had a daughter named Pu Gam while the second wife, Kāma, had a daughter called Sudha. Jealous of Sudhammā, Kāmā used a trick to convince the Setthi to kill his first wife. Pu Gam fled into the jungle and met Prince Brahmã who took her back to Benares. Later on, the Seṭṭhi tried to kill Pu Gam, but killed his own daughter by mistake. The Setthi and his wife were then sentenced to death by Prince Brahma.

Colophon:

I wish for the threefold happiness of which Nibbāna is the ultimate one. I, Yasamutnòi, wrote this manuscript to keep the Buddha’s Teachings transmitted by Khruba Sommana of Wat Ban Hong Luang Si Bun Rüang. May the merit support me and my family members. Nibbāna paccayo hontu me niccaṃ dhuvaṃ dhuvaṃ.
