Read, probably, .prasddikrita-.
Read fry. Instead of this word which I do not remember to have met with elsewhere, I should have expected here, next to dandapafika, as in other grants, -chanr6ddharanika..
• It is just possible that the two aksharas chars were struck out in the original, and that the intended reading therefore is.chára-bhata..
Read-prabaritinedyuktaka-niyuktakan• Read -pattra-sthita jalavatetarald frirs.
7 Read jivitam. • Metre of this verse and of the next : Rathoddhati.- Read Padmapattra..
This of course cannot be right, but the actual reading does not suggest to me suitable conjecture. 10 Read nishphalam.
11 Originally rodblso was engraved, but the sign for d has been struck out. 11 Read gramó. 13 Read-shashikyam.
" Read-samdrjana. 15 Read ach,
16 Read, in accordance with the preceding, °dérasya. 11 Here and in other places below the rules of sad i have not been observed.
Hond Ambullaka- ; in line 54 of the grant B. the name is spelt Amoulaka...
1 Thin term, the reading of which is quite clear in the photograph, I am unable to explain. The word olollikd occurs above, Vol. III. p. 267, 1. 28; and Prof. Hultzsch draws my attention to Vol. VI. p. 88, note 9.
. Ono would have expected here aoldfadhaçaprardian, and some other term ending with varjita(like .9.. púrpudatta-dérabral maddya-rarjitah).
