Julian K. Wheatley's translation (assuming the text is complete)

This is the revered (Queen) Chandradevi.

1. ASI reads the first line as “Jatradevī u bi x x” with a long <ī> absent from Pyu, recognizing the Sanskrit name Candradevī and noting PYU 17 (the sun-moon stele) where the same name is mentioned (Mahadevi Sri Jatra). Luce speaks of this lady as “Queen Chandradevi”.

First reported by U Mya writing in 1930–34: I, 246-7, which notes 2 lines with a total of 7 akṣaras, including the name <jatradevi>, identified as Queen Chandradevi. Luce, in I, 66, 75 n. 29, 149, repeats much of what is in ASI in his summary. Re-edited here from published photographs.
