TRANSLATION.
Sanskrit portion. (L. 1) Hail! Prosperity !
(V. 1) May the arms of Sarngin (ie., Vishnu) of the harinila-blue body, which are resplendent with gärnga and other weapons, which are marked with the käsmira ointment (smeared) on the surface of Lakshmi's two round breasts, whose golden bracelets glitter as they rub against the high summits of the whirling Mandara (mountain), (and) which protect the three worlds, increase greatly your prosperity !
From this word onwards the writing is slightly different and the letters are more deeply cut. This portion might belong to the time of Rajendra-Chola I., while the previous portion might have been written at the time of Rajaraja L
