No. 23.] DHANAIDAHA INSCRIPTION OF KUMARAGUPTA I: THE YEAR 113. 347
I edit the inscription from the original plate :
TEXT. ....... mvatsaral-sat[@] trayodas-õtta. 2... ... n-d[i]Vasa-pårvvåyam parama-daivata-para........ (?) katu[mbi]..... brahmana-Sivasarmma-Nagasarm

1 Read sanratsara..
* Read -ottare.
Read asyon=dirasa.. • Rond -paramabhaffäraka. In the Damodarpar plates also Kamära-gapta I is styled parama-daivata. • Road, perhaps, mahattara.. •& Mr. Banerji ronds Kshamavanta and Vishyabhadra. • Mr. Banerji reads Maha-khushapära. • Mr. Banerji reads nivatta instead of amritta.
10 Mr. Banerji's reading "maiádya nanu oakkra lēna () " instead of our reading "mam-adya=anen aiva Eleromona(na)" and his remark on the palæography of his supposed la in his own reading lēna () is Quwarranted.
11 Instead of avadhritan iti yatas-tathēti Mr. Banerji read dahyakam=iti yatast(y)ajati.
11 Read alfaka-navaka-nalabhyars. The sense of the whole docament depends on the correct reading of this line of the inscription, and Mr. Banerji's reading gives no help. His reading of the whole line is as follows:" .. ... vara nålaka sada (?) .chya ....... kritya vasa-lak. (?) datta tata suyuktaka ......."
Mr. Banerji rends vantabhya (?) for vastavya and chandala () for ohlandiga. 14 Mr. Bauerji reads furu () gunan, 1 Mr. Banerji roads fasi ).
