Raden (Ardi) Kusuma romance
A MS perhaps from Madura. Complete.
The first folio containing the basmalah enclosed within foliate scrolls. This MS identified by Edwin Wieringa (14 March 2011) who noted, ‘Scanning the leaves for key terms, I detected the words Mĕsir, Ngĕrum, and Kusuma, so perhaps we're dealing here with the Raden (Ardi) Kusuma romance.’
In Javanese language and script. In verse.
