rudradhārābhidhānā sā gaṅgā ghoṣa-vatī babhau loka-kilbiṣa-saṁhartrī pratyakṣan dyu-nadīva yā .
ābhidhānā sā śivārnāsā

This Gaṅgā, bearing the name of Rudradhārā, that destroys the evils of the world loka-kilbiṣa-saṁhartrī, has appeared babhau clearly pratyakṣan and noisily ghoṣavatī, like the heavenly river dyu-nadī iva !

Cette Gaṅgā, portant le nom de Rudradhārā, qui détruit les maux du monde loka-kilbiṣa-saṁhartrī, e babhau clairement pratyakṣan et bruyamment ghoṣavatī, comme la rivière céleste dyunadī iva !

The modification brought to Claude Jacques' edition now allows us to identify the Angkorian name of the river of Kbal Spean, namely Rudradhārā lit. "The stream of Rudra". This toponym is also found in K. 1012-2 which had not been interpreted as such by Claude Jacques.
