TRANSLATION After the exclamations Om !, Hail !, the record opens with a verse, a good deal of which is illegible and cannot be restored, but which is directed to the praises of a person not mentioned in it by name apparently, bat identical of course with the Marasimha of the rest of the record, who is brre described as enjoying, through the power of the sword of his arm, the whole earth, up to the ocean, - as being a very jewel to adorn the kings of the Ganga lineage, and as darkening, like a bank of clouds, the moon that was the faces of the women of his foes. It then proceeds] -
(Line 4) - Om! Om! Om! Ornate prose :Let the record of the prowess and the record of the piety of him, the glorious Nolambakul. Antakadove, who played the part of
1 Metre, Kands; and in the next verse. 1 Mr. Rice's text ha Parinya. Bat the second akshara is distinctls va, not ri. + Metre, Mattáblavikridits.
