Avalokitesvara

It appears that the intrusive adjacent passage, which carefully avoids cutting into Avalokitesvara's lotus, was cut for convenient access via Cave 4's abandoned right wall before the Litany was finished. Only the upper two episodes are now legible--forest fire at the top, and attack by a brigand just below. We can assume that the bottom right panel was a shipwreck scene, always placed at the lower level.
