Apparatus
⟨1⟩ halaṁpūrasāmina ⬦ halaṁpūrasāmine Nilakanta_Sastrib. — ⟨1⟩ °ayuvadhinika(ṁ) ⬦ °ayuvadhinikaṁ Nilakanta_Sastrib • An editorial note signed by N.L.R. (presumably the N. Laksminayarana Rao who contributed to the same volume of EI) suggests that the reading is actually °ayuvadhanike.
⟨2⟩ t(o)dukasiri ⬦ nodukasiri Nilakanta_Sastrib. — ⟨2⟩ saṁpadatāṁ ⬦ saṁpada(ttāṁ) Nilakanta_Sastrib • Nilakanta Sastri suggests emending saṁpadattaṁ.
⟨3⟩ siriruḻa(pu)risadātāsa ⬦ siriruḻupūrisadātasa Nilakanta_Sastrib • The pu seems to be the result of a correction from an original da. We follow Sircard, who suggest reading ruḻa instead of ruḻu. — ⟨3⟩ sa(va) ⬦ sa ta Nilakanta_Sastrib • The word expected here is sava or saṁva. The akṣara read as ta by Nilakanta Sastri is different in shape from all cases of ta in the text. It is easier to assume a miswritten va. — ⟨3⟩ gipa 1 diva 10 3 ⬦ gi 8 diva 10 ||| Nilakanta_Sastrib.

i.e., halaṁpūrasāmina as epithet of bhagavate and the
king as donor. If the king is the donor, one might
wonder whether bhagavant‐ halaṁpūrasāmin‐ necessarily
refers to the Buddha (since males as opposed to
females tended to patronize non‐Buddhist deities).
