## Translation into French by Cœdès 1958

1.

Śrī Harṣavarman, petit-fils du roi, Śrī Īśānavaman, qui avait épandu la
masse de sa gloire, a obtenu par succession régulière le trône aux
lions.

2.

Il a procuré au fortuné Āmratakeśvara une litière ornée de joyaux, avec
un parasol, des danseurs et des instruments de musique.

3.

Et ensuite, il a donné à Śrī Īśāneśvara un kośa (ici, semble-t-il
"trésor" et non "gaine"), comprenant des compositions poétiques, ainsi
que des chants, etc.
