1 From impressions supplied to me by Dr. Fleet. • Expressed by a symbol.
Metre : Målini. • The upper portion of the syllables ama-Dai is damaged, but the actual reading appears to be as given above. Instead of the word wdddma I should rather have expected a word meaning 'frightened or something similar.
5 Metre : Vasantatilaka; and of the next verse. • Metre: Upajati. 7 Metre: Vasantatilakd. * Originally -dhurd was engraved. • Metre: Sardulavikridita; and of the next verse. 10 The syllable jind looks in the original like atrd. 1 Metre: Sragdhara.
