1 The akshara 8 of Magyddi has not come out well in the facsimile, but is quite clear in the original, In my opinion, the word blogi before Bhogyddi is superfluous and has been engraved by mistake, and for the following vishaya janapadan I should have expected something like vishaya patladnapaddifecha.
Read chal Anyat.-The Gamedr grant apparently has :-ddifati cha sarvata fiam-demdkam-anyat ciditam-astu bharatdm-dlad vishaya.
* Originally fieims was engraved, but the i of ei has been struck out. . This second sangat is superfluous. Read -sambandha- (for-sambaddha-).
Rendgrdmat-chatu sind.. Rend paryanto. The following gramó-yas and the sign of punctuation are superfluous. • Rendadhaya d-chandrdrkka-sama-kalan; the following ydvat is superfluous. . Read orodhat.
10 Instead of karatodna, we require akaratodna, which (like akar kritya) occurs often in other inscriptions and is quite distinct in the lithograph of the Gumsûr grant (though Kamalakanta's text gives dkararatndna). The following two akakaras are conjectural. In the Gumsur grant akarafudna is possibly followed by Chwijay'nin (for which the text ha bhanddri). 11 Read Upamanya,
A the word datta below is several times written data, this might stand for datte- or perhaps datta-) pravardya; but I am unable to explain the expression. In Ind. Ant., Vol. XXI. p. 268, 1. 43. We have Aupamanya nd-sagótrdya | An dyana- dorahmacharini bhaftapravara-Vindkardtamisrdya, where bhafta pratara in equally obscure. The Upamanyavas had three prasaras - Vásishtha, Abharadvasu and Indrapramada compare . Muller, History of Ancient Sanskrit Lit., p. 385. . 1 Read -sákhd
Gawrichandrasya naptri Sri P)daraaya ruidya bhaffa-Ddrukhandl-ndmnd. 15 Read dattireddha-.
16 Read didele, 17 Read dti | Uktai-oha dharmma-detrain | Bahubhir. -Metre of the verses up to the commencement of line 88: Sroka (Anushtabh). 16 Read dattd.
10 Read -dattan'. 10 Read krimit-o dtod.
11 Read -dattet. 11 Band -dnaniyad paradatt, mag. above, Vol. III., p. 46, 1. 48 : p. 843, 1.28; or. Instead of dnandyante other granta have dnandyar (above, Vol. III, p. 848, 1. 19, p. 863, 1. 46), or ananta (Vol. III., p. 857, 1. 50), or atyasta (Vol. VIII., p. 149, 1. 26).
