Image description

Prince Selarasa on the far right, with two of his elder brothers paying their respects to a holy man. The sage's daughter, Ni Rumsari, had dreamt that three handsome men would come to visit. Behind her stands a female servant from eastern Indonesia. The dragon-like motif on the first line of text on the left-hand page marks the boundary between two cantos in the poem.
