* The figure 7 had been at first omitted by the engraver and was later squeezed in the small space betwoon the preceding and following aksharas.
Sanskrit Sri-Purushollamadēvaya. * Sanskrit datta bhumih.
Sanskrit Vidva pati. ? The intended pronunciation may be Chhatayi.
Two akaharas here are indistinct.
• The meaning of this line is not clear. Karartharis may be intended for Sanskrit karan-artham. If landau can be read as mando, the word may be associated with Sanskrit mandapa or mandana. But it is very doubtful. The akshara dau may also be read prai; but the meaning of the expression is uncertain.
10 There are a number of akaharas after this, but their reading is uncertain. 11 Expressed by syn.bol. 12 The rule of sandhi has been ignored. 13 Sanskrit olfaya-rajye.. 1 This expression stands for samvat or samvatsart. 15 Sanskrit Sakābdah. 16 Sanskrit fukla. 17 Sanskrit &ri-Purushottamadevasya.
15 This is either a mistake for fri or an alternative form of i as found in Inscription No. 1 above. The usual form of the following proper nomo is Krillivian
1. This akshara is redundant. 20 Ranskrit Mahadeva. * Expressed by symbol. ** Read Sakābdah. 13 The rule of sandhi has been ignored. 24 Sanskrit vijaya-rajve.
