The content tells the story of Pannyaphala Kumman who was a ship merchant, fell in love with a rich woman's daughter named Samathi. They later became husband and wife. Both of them are meritorious, smart, and moral-conduct people, or it can be said that they both have equal morals. Both of them are people who have 10 principles of confidence that are to be willing to give alms, to observe the 5 precepts regularly, to help those who beg from different directions, to have hearts that are not hypocritical, to have a soft and humble heart, to act with pride, not to show anger but if there is one, not to show it to others, not to be rude to others, not to oppress others, to have high tolerance and not to behave in a wrong way. Colophon: Folio 26 on the recto side: Sangkat (CS) 1167, a hap pao year, on the thirteenth day of the waxing moon of the tenth lunar month, the sixth day of the week (Friday). The writing was accomplished at the time of thiang van (between 10.30–12.00 o’clock). The younger sister of the king of the crystal seat, named [Princess] Pheriya had the religious faith to sponsor the making [of this manuscript] to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May my desires and wishes come true, definitely.
