Description of manuscript content:

The opening of the text contains birth divination based on the days of the seven-day week (saptawara) starting with Sunday up to Saturday. For instance, a child born on Sunday will have light skin, even shoulders, will be rather short and loved by men and women. The child will be clever and usually will be an incarnation through the line of the mother. Its guardian god will be Dewa Indra, its tree the Eucalyptus and when it is ill it will have been caused by Bhatara Guru’s anger.
