Colophon:

In 2405 BE, on the fifth day of the waxing moon of the eleventh lunar month, I stopped writing this manuscript entitled Arindamā with a reed pen made of Baphicacanthus cusia Brem leaves and cinnabar derived from Dòi Luang of Müang Küng, Wiang Pāi. Remark: The date corresponds to Sunday, 28 September 1862 (1124 Asvina 5).

Other notes:

The front cover and the back cover are decorated with black lacquer in lines and patterns with inlaid minute glasses. The manuscript is slightly damaged by insects. Text 1: (The inner flyleaf) This manuscript is entitled Arindamā, everybody. Text 2: (The inner flyleaf) This manuscript is entitled Chanaka, everybody. Note: At the end of the manuscript are the Request for the Eight Precepts and the chanting text for worshiping Buddha’s previous births as sixteen kinds of animals included.
