1 Metre : Indravajri.
Read dussamay(or dukshamay)-dadhakdra-. . Read -dott.
• Metre of verses 8-10: Vamasthe. 5 Heres sign of punctuation was originally engraved.- Ambika is similarly described in the inscription of the Vikrama year 1201, mentioned above, p. 151 f., in a verse the correct reading of which I take to be: Vikata. kutiladamahird-oMohandayan tathd cha dhutafabalanstalt-bdourar tungamwuchchail I calati ritam-uddrade vedika-sanathan sadegina mpigapalimwadhirildid - Ambikd bastu tualtyai l. Compare the representation of Kushmaydint in Ind. Ant. Vol. XXXII. p. 463, Plate iv.
• Metre: Upajati.
7 It is difficult to my whether we slould read Adindthas or Adiddant. The akalars which follows upon ddi originally was dd, but seems to have been altered ; and the next akahara looks more like tha than us, but it might be said that th has been wrongly engraved instead of u also in Thimala for Vimala, in line 5. On the whole I think that the reading Adindthat is preferable.
8 Metre: śloks (Anushubh).
• The sign for d in this word is clearly struck out in the original, and it seems probable that the engraver intended to alter bharatan to bhanatu.- In the above I have purposely given Srimdtd, not frf-Maid, because in other inscriptions fri appears clearly to be part of the name, not an honorific prefix. I may mention that in No. 1774 of Mr. Consens' Liat we have Srimdiad of us one word, not Srimdtriddl, and that in the account given of this mythical being and her father in Merutanga's Prabandhachintamani, p. 382 ft., the buse of the word is both śremdtd and Srimdtri. In the same account the father's name is Sriwija. * Metre: Arya.
11 Read Varishhd, compare above, line 3. 11 Read fringe. Since at the commencement of the verse the mountain is addressed in the vocative case, one would have expected tava Iringd, but this would not have suited the metre.
u Metre : Svågata. 1 Cháhundma- probably is a mistake for either Chdhundna-or Chhwedya. 15 Metre : Drutavilambita.
1 Metre: Upajati. 24 After the 8 of tans6 another vertical stroke was originally engraved, but has been track ont. 13 Metre: Indravajrd. - Read Asan-trayass Metre: Rathoddhate 20 Read, probably, madhuararan.
1 Metre : Upajati.
