* The dra looks very much like dann.
The impression makes the second Anusvåra very probable.
- Etayar stands for Eta iyant. According to the analogy yename for yena ime, eto. ee E. Müller: Simplified Pali Grammar, p. 60.
* The Anusvåra is doubtful. • Possibly tenadra to be read.
Read janasa. * The dra looks very much like dan.
Possibly eshe to be read. • The upper part of the i-stroke is very frint.
Porsibly is is to be read. • Chá, not cha, is the reading of the impression. 5 The impression shows no Anusvåra. • This looks like rajan.
* Possibly tenadra is to be read.
The obverse of the impression seems to give nate, but the reverse shows santan to be the right reading.
. Possibly nikhanitha to be read.
10 The impression shows no cha after janaed, only superficial scratches.
11 Read hirañapatividhane. 19 Read dhan andnusathi. # There is no Anusvåra in dhamapalipuchha. 44 Possibly the reading may have been bhagi. 16 Read edifiye.
* Read balu; only the lower ball of the first letter bus been preserved; the recond has been omitted.
11 Karotne stands for karonte. 18 For etárixan. Read daramamangalan.
