Description of manuscript content:
One existence, the Bodhisatta was born in a poor family in Pharanasi kingdom which was under the reign of King Phommadata. The Bodhisatta’s given name was Somphumarat or Taeng Khiao (lit: a green melon). When Taeng Khiao was grown up, his mother left him with a group of the captains of junks. Thus, Taeng Khiao was travelling with the captains for trading.
