Accordian-style folding book (parabaik) medical text discussing various illnesses which affect the human body. In Mon with some Pāli. Includes various various astrological diagram and lists.

Condition of original material: Text appears more or less complete but pages have been eaten extensively by worms. Corners have been cut off but appear not to affect written text. Some damage to centre binding. End pages tending to disintegrate. Cover not well preserved, though much of the original black paper is intact. Has been written in stages and includes a few notes in Thai.
Custodial history: Handwriting is Thai Mon. Collection housed in a wooden box dated to 1918.
No colophon.
