The attendant minister and chief envoy Kun Tie-xie-ti, the deputy envoy and others who had been sent by Guo-long Bo-la Lue-kun Xi-li You-di-ya, the king of the country of Siam, brought a gold-leaf memorial and offered tribute of local products. A banquet, as well as variegated silks, thin silks, paper money and other goods, as appropriate, were conferred upon them. Further, the envoys were given patterned brocades and variegated silks to take back to confer, on their return, on the king of their country and his consort.
