The text tells the rewards derived from alms giving to the monks who have finished the practice of probation (parivasa). One who gave alms giving and built the huts for practicing probation to monks will gain much merit and obtain the three states of happiness including 1. Worldly happiness: the one will be reborn as an emperor who is the master of the four continents; 2. Heavenly happiness: the one will be reborn as Indra and Brahma who is the master of devas; 3. Bliss in Nirvana is the great bliss than other blisses. Colophon: Folio 17 on the recto side: Sattabuarabat Chunlasangkat (CS) 1215, a ka pao year, the […] day of the waxing moon of the tenth lunar month, a kat mao day, the sixth day of the week (Saturday), the writing was accomplished at the time of tut sai (between 12.00–13.30 o’clock). Mom (Princess) Phan was the initiator along with her husnband, all children, parents and relatives jointly together sponsored the making of this manuscript entitled Lam sòng, to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May this be a condition for us to reach Nibbāna certainly.
