TRANSLATION
Hail! Prosperity! In the seventeenth year of king Kōdai-Ravi, (when) Jupiter stood in (the) Mithuna-(rasi), the following transaction was made by the temple officials and the manager of the Nityavichārēśvaram, at a meeting over which Kōdai-Ravi of Venpoli-nādu presided.
(The villages) Ukkiramangalam and Iyanamangalam were set apart for the sacred temple expenses. Three hundred kulam of paddy by the iḍangali (measure) shall be measured in the (temple) verandah as pāṭṭam payable to the temple.
Out of this, the paddy required per annum for the sacred offerings and the servants is one hundred and nine kalam and twenty nali; for panguvilai and lamps, eight hundred and six nāļi; for rice to the gändarvikal and nangaimär, one hundred and sixty four kalam and fifty nāli; and for the kanan and the o[r]viyan sixteen kalam and fifty nāļi.
The allowance in rice to (be given to) the nangaimar according to the high (uttama), middling (madhyama) and low (adhama) scales is (respectively) two nāli (and) one uri, two nāli, and one nāļi (and) one uri by (the measure called) sattiram.
