TRANSLATION.
Hail! Prosperity! In the 9th year opposite to the 4th year of (the reign of) king Marañjaḍaiyan corresponding to the day of Sadaiyam, i.e., Satabhishaj (falling) on a Tuesday in the month of Dhanus, king Marañjaḍaiyan alias Päṇḍyakulapati Varagupa-Mahārāya gave into the hands of Aṇḍa-nāṭṭu-Vēlāṇ 120 old kāśu for burning day and night, till the sun and the moon last, two perpetual lamps in the temple of the Mahadeva at Tiruttavatturai in Iḍaiyarru-nāḍu. As interest on these one hundred and twenty käs the capital remaining un-affected-we bound ourselves to measure out daily [two nali of ghes by the nārāya-nāļi measure]. Thus agreeing, we, (the members of) the assembly of Пamperunkay-irukkai in Iḍaiyarru-nadu, received these kasu. If (any) default occurs in (giving) these two nali of ghee daily, we agreed on behalf of the Mahadeva of Tiruttavatturai to pay, either in a body or individually, double the (quantity at) default and a fine of five hundred kānam (of gold) to the royal (officers) inclusive of [nilaikkalam] as the Mahesvaras attached to the central shrine desire.
This gap may be filled up with the words “ rāya nāļiyāl iru-nāļi ney".
The letters laikkalam-u are damaged.
The first y in neyyal is corrected from yi.
Bead Hai.
