Summary:
Leaves from 5 or 6 different manuscripts containing words in Pali from unknown narrative and pedagogical texts, with translations and glosses in Thai. The text on these leaves is too fragmentary to allow identification of the source texts of the Pali words.
Notes:
Written in 3-5 lines per leaf.
Three leaves have a Thai numeral in the left margin (2, 3, 45); four leaves have letters from the Thai alphabet in the left margin (letters 2, 4-6).
Written in Thai script and Khom script (the Pali words), by 5 or 6 hands, each associated with a different manuscript.
Probably written in the 1830s in Central Thailand (Justin McDaniel).
Leaves of palm leaf with two central holes slightly less than 19.5 cm apart, edges quite damaged.
