1 Metre: śloks (Anushtabh). * Metre of verses 10 and 11: Vasantatilski.
The original possibly has lantaka dos mdrttas. • Originally ofbhdea or odbrdoa was engraved.
Metre: Slók (Anushtabb).-I am cable to restore the first half of this verse with any confidence, but the mening probably is that the king's hand in battle took away fortano from his adversary. Compare Gupta Ispor. p. 203, 1. 7.
Originally randbedki- was engraved.
Metre: Vantatilaki.- Compare sirupdlavadha XV. 90. • Metre : Sragdhart. • The akakara which is missing here I am unable to restore with confidence. 10 OE these three akakaras the first and the last seen to be certain, and the second is either oa orok 11 Metre: Vantatilaki.
13 Metre: sloks (Anushtabh). Soo sboro, p. 250. 1 Metre: Vasantatilaka.
14 The water of the sword-blade (asidhdrd-jala, khadgad kdrd-payas, khadgadidndmöhan) is often spoken of by poeta; compare ag. Radvall, pp. 64 and 168, and above Vol. IL p. 307, v. 31.
15 The plarul of asrü is similarly used in Sifupdlapadha xvii, 66 (aristo.
1 I have little doubt that this is the correct reading; in the original modial i was originally engraved. before the akahara which I read as pra, but it has clearly been strook out. 11 Metre: Malint.
19 Metre: bloka (Anushtabh). 1This word, being repeated at the commencement of the next line, is superfluogs here. Srphsla is used in the double sense of the fruit of his prosperity and . Bilva fruit.'
