On one occasion, while the Buddha was residing at the Nigrodharama monastery in Kapilavatthu spoke about his perfection of morality to his disciples. Once, King Phommathat ruled the kingdom of Varanasi, there was a rich man who had 18 Kotis of wealth. At that time, the Bodhisattva was born as Nu phüak (a while mouse) called Dhamapālamusika with an appearance as white as a conch and soft hair like cotton wool. The mouse liked to listen to the Dharma and observe the precepts regularly. The rich man also liked to play with the mouse while it was practicing his morality. Sometimes, the rich man touched the head of the mouse. The mouse took into account that today the millionaire comes to play with me and he would destroy my moral conduct, which is not worthy and is a great sin. Because of this, the mouse decided to tell the rich man not to play with it while observing its precepts, he would be sinful. When the rich man heard it, he got angry, so he caught the mouse and killed it. Colophon: Folio 22 on the verso side: [The writing] was accomplished at the time of trae kai thiang (between 9.00–10.30 o’clock), on the first day of the week (Sunday), the second day of the waning moon of the second lunar month.
