Tosari’s tract is cast in Javanese verse forms (tembang macapat) and was meant for sung performance. The text is here transliterated and translated in full. It is suggested that the only surviving copy of the text was an example of ‘clever’ missionary literature., UL https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/NTT1996.4.002.WIER
