INSCRIPTION OF KHĀRAVELA
15 7. Abhisito ca [chadhe]? vas[e] ° (rāja-sirim) saņdamsayamto 5 sava-kara-vaņa - [16]-anugaha-anekāni? sata-sahasāni visajati pora P-jānapadam [.]
1. Prinsep reads sabhāsari; Cunningham sabhisori ; Jayaswal correctly, abhisito.
2. The gap containing space at least for three letters has altogether been lost sight of by Jayaswal.
3. The letter just beyond the gap appears to be sa.
4. Prinsep reads pāsaca; Cunningham, hāsa ca; Indraji, rājaseyam ; Jayaswal, rājasuyam, correcting his former reading rājaseya. I maintain that the word is neither rājaseyam nor rājasuyam ; it is rājasirim.
5. Prinsep reads sadasa te; Cunningham, samdasamto; Indraji, samdamsanato; Jayagwal, samdamsayamto, correcting his former reading samdemsanato.
6. Prinsep reads pava karavana; Cunningham, sa vakara vana; Indraji, save-karāvanam, which is accepted by R. D, Banerji ; Jayaswal, sava-kara-vanam, correcting his former reading sava-bharāvana[m]. I was inclined at first to read savabharaṇāni. But it is certain that the letter after ra is va.
7. Pringep alone reads anekani. Others read anekāni. 8. Prinsep alone reads sahasani. Others read sahasāni. 9. Jayaswal alone reads poram. Others read pora. I do not find any anusvāra-sign.
