20 The first letter, which is badly damaged, seems to have been one of the abnormal signs, occurring Ed. VI in oro. dhanaspi and so forth, and is probably meant for spa.
The last sign is the same as in orodhanaspi and so forth, *Read danam.
23 Probably a mistake for anugaho.
24 The ra-stroke is not quite certain.
25 The second and fourth vowels are not quite distinct,
and one might possibly read nivuteyeti.
26 The last vowel is not quite certain.
27 The two signs of this word stand the one above the
other.
28 Read ñátikena.
29 Read sahayena.
Possibly pana to be read.
Possibly ia to be read.
Read sádku.
The Anusvåra of sakam is at least very probable.
31 Possibly pana to be read.
Read dhramamamgalena.
26 The Anusvåra is uncertain.
7 The Anusvåra is uncertain.
Thus distinct in B, instead of prarasasi.

39 The vu in the third syllable is distinct.
40 The lower stroke is nearly straight and pajopadâne a possible reading, but see the Mansehra version.
The first and last syllables of editaye are very indistinct. This is the reading of the reverse, distinct except in the last syllable.
Khudd, not khudam, is the reading of the impression. Read nilathiya or "yam.
45 Possibly bahuvidhe to be read.
46 Possibly khude to be read.
The Anusvåra is uncertain.
4s Kalamti, not kaleti, is distinct.
49 Read katariye.
so The existence of this word is certain, the quantity of the last syllable doubtful.
51 Gulund not nam, is the reading of the impression.
52 Namd, not náma, is the reading of the impression.
53 Putena, not putend, is the reading of the impression.
5 Possibly pitina to be read.
55 The ya has besides the Anusvåra an apparent e-stroke, which must be accidental.
54 The third syllable of nivutiyd is superficially damaged. The reverse leaves no doubt regarding the reading.
