PP 1-12, Arayāgīti = May that Ravikīrti be victonous, who full of discernment has used the abode of Jina, firmly built of stone, for a new treatment of his theme and who, thus by his poetic skill, has attained to the fame of Kālıdāsa and of Bhāravi The author of this poetic composition is the famous poet-laureate of Pulikesin II, written in the year Saka Samvat 556 (A. D 634) This is not an invocatory verse in the sense that this is the last verse of the inscription

[EC II (R) 360(254) 1398 P 215-16 Upajätı metre) May the destroyer of karma (sin), knower of all things, Vira, the last Tirthanātha (Tirthankara, the omniscient spirtual teacher of the Jains, who is also a builder of the ford for Jains to follow), who is praised by the three worlds as the maker of an excellent gift to his devotee, protect(us)

May the Suns in the form of Jinendras, who are the overlords of the worlds and whose rays have been flashing upwards (?), bring (Kuryāsuh) that wealth (glory) which is auspicious allround (Samantabhadrām) and which is steady without any blemish (Akalankanścıltäm)
