Description of manuscript content:

The story of Kabar Sundari is about King Jarum Marjum who dreamed that he saw a horse that had three eyes. He ordered his two viziers to look for it and when they found it they took it from its owner, Badik Walam in a nasty way. Prabu Jarum’s daughter, Jumeneng Sari, entered Badik Walam’s room because she was overcome with love for him and they made love, which was not allowed. Because of this, Badik Walam was imprisoned and Jumemeng Sari went crazy. Both were saved by Guru Alim who killed one of the viziers. In the end, there was a disastrous love affair, which caused much suffering.
