This scroll includes two fragments with 47 lines from the Lotus Sutra and five fragments with 94 lines from the seventh volume of the Treatise on the Perfection of the Great Wisdom. Both scriptures represent translations Kumarajiva (350–409) from the Kingdom of Kucha, but are thought to be copies made in the fifth century.
