Abstract: A pre-modular form Zn(sigma;au) of weight frac12n(n+1) is introduced for each ninBbbN, where (sigma,au)inBbbCimesBbbH, such that for Eau=BbbC/(BbbZ+BbbZau), every non-trivial zero of Zn(sigma;au), namely sigmaotinEau[2], corresponds to a (scaling family of) solution to the mean field equation �egin{equation} ag{MFE} riangle u + e^u = ho , delta_0 end{equation} on the flat torus Eau with singular strength ho=8pin. In Part I (Cambridge J. Math. 3, 2015), a hyperelliptic curve , the Lam'e curve, associated to the MFE was constructed. Our construction of Zn(sigma;au) relies on a detailed study on the correspondence induced from the hyperelliptic projection and the addition map. As an application of the explicit form of the weight 10 pre-modular form Z4(sigma;au), a counting formula for Lam'e equations of degree n=4 with finite monodromy is given in the appendix (by Y.-C. Chou).
