XVI. - LALRAI STONE INSCRIPTION OF LAKHANAPALA AND ABHA YAPALA; [VIKRAMA-] SAMVAT 1233.
This inscription was, like No. XV, found amidst the ruins of a Jains temple at Lalrai. It consists of 13 lines of writing, covering a space of 83" broad by 113" high. The characters are Nagari. From the word tathā in 1. 10 onwards, all the lines appear to have been afterwards added and are engraved in smaller characters. The peculiar form of the letter d noticed above also occurs here. The language is Sanskrit, and the whole of the inscription is in prose. As regards orthography, it may be noted that sha is used for kha three times (11. 1, 2 and 6). In respect of lexicography, the following words deserve to be noticed: (1) sira in 11. 5-6 and 12, which seems to have been used in the sense of, not a plough,' but a ploughman or cultivator' and (2) se° in 1. 7 which stands for sei, a kind of weight mentioned in my remarks on No. X.

The record is dated on the 3rd of the bright half of Vaisakha in the [Vikrama] year 1283, and speaks of the princes ( rājaputra) Lakhapapala and Abhayapala as the proprietors (bhaktyi) of Sathnānaka (of. No. XV). It then states that Bhivada, Asadhara, and other cultivators granted for their spiritual merit, four seas of barley-corn from (the field called) Khadisira to the god Samtinatha in connection with the festival of the Gujaras. The postscript (11. 10-13) records that āsadhara, Sirsiya and other cultivators granted for the spiritual merit of Vilha, one haroths (hāraka ?) of barley-corn from the machine - well of Bhadiyaus (Badva).
