This word seems to indicato a stream. We have a Lakaviraya in line 48, Pagn raviraya in lines 53 and 56 and, Sumkuviraya in line 54 of this inscription. They may represent the names of the streams. The word viraya is not found in the lexicons.
* The word sårdüla is taken liere in the sense of 'fine, excellent '; the alternative meaning would bo'tamarind troos infested with tigers'.
