Seven Texts of the Abhidhamma
Including fourteen openings, this very refined manuscript is richly illustrated with pairs of heavenly beings flanking text, written in Cambodian Mul script in Pali. The painting style is typical of the most elegant work of the late 19th century. The illustrations have striped borders of red with blue on either side. An index on fol. 79 lists nine Pali texts that are included in the manuscript.
