PENUKAPARU GRANT OF JAYASIMHA II.
318
It will have been observed that the grant is a clumsy production which would remain upintelligible without comparing it with other more properly arranged documents of the same kind. A few remarks have to be made concerning the geographical names occurring in it. One of the imprecations mentions Värapani (1. 24), i.e. Benares. The field granted adjoined the village of Populaparu in the district of Karma-rashtra (1. 14). This village must be distinct from another Penukapafu in the district of Gudrahāra, which had been the object of a grant of Jayasinha I. For the district of Karma-rashtra see above, p. 228. The village of Vangiparu (L. 9), where the donee lived, is mentioned also in two grants of Narendramrigarāja' and Amma II.

Read perhaps praapnench * The tu of kutumbinash was originally omitted and then entered below the line A rom behind tu marks the place where it is to be inserted. The singular kufombinasie is used instead of the pluril kutus. bina, slao in Ind. Anh, Vol. XIII, p. 49 and p. 275 ; cf. leo sbovo, Vol. III, p. 19.
This locative is quite out of place boro.
