 collection of fables known in their Malay form as Kalila dan Damina and Panjatanděran.

The sole example that I have been able to obtain appears to be incomplete at the conclusion, but I am not certain of this, as the whole composition is slovenly and confused. It has not been taken direct from any known Malay version, and indeed it is possible that it has been rendered into Achehnese verse from an imperfect recollection of a not over-accurate recitation of the Malay work.

Certain inconsistencies and additions, however, seem to indicate a different origin.
