Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 March 2011
Extract
The text of which the title is given below has recently been published as part 3 of vol. cli of the “Sitzungsberichte der Kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften in Wien, Philosophisch-historische Klasse,” and as it is the first work in the Mon language that has ever been edited and printed in Europe, probably the readers of this Journal will be interested to have some information about it.

page 368 note 2 In his capacity of Superintendent of the Census Mr. Eales took a keen interest in the languages of Burma, and it is really to his initiative that the publication of this text is ultimately due. I desire here to acknowledge my indebtedness to the willing help rendered by him on several occasions in connexion with my attempts to learn something of the Mon language.
